Abstract: |
Excavations revealed an archaeological sequence extending from the late Iron Age to the 19th century. Two field systems spanning the late Iron Age and early Roman periods were the earliest dated features; medieval activity associated with the manor was excavated on the east side of the site and overlying all were two phases of gardens, including the later phase part of formal and kitchen gardens. The remains of post-medieval buildings were also encountered. In addition, a watching brief was also undertaken during topsoil stripping associated with the main excavation which evidenced a building, a yard and field boundary to the north in the historic Church Close; additionally pipe-trenching revealed the remains of the ha ha or pale ditch between the inner park and the outer park to the south of the site.
