Abstract:
An archaeological watching brief was carried out over two fields adjacent to the linear (possibly medieval) earthwork which defined the current and historical boundary between Boxworth and Childerley estates. In the northernmost field a small fragment from the rim of a 13th century ceramic bowl was recovered close to a small undefined spread of burnt clay and charcoal. No other finds or features were found in this field. Throughout the whole area no features associated with the earthwork were identified. The southernmost field sloped to a central depression adjacent to and west off Wood Walk Spinney. This depression defined the location of a former pond, backfilled by the farmer in 1963/4. Approximately 30m south of the pond machining uncovered the purported remains of a brick or tile kiln. Managed woodland and water in the area, the natural brickearth reource and the proximity of the brick-built Childerley Hall, suggested an agro-industiral complex producing wicker or the estate and bricks/tiles perhaps for a particular phase of building at the Hall.
