Abstract: |
An evaluation was carried out at the proposed site of a small residential development which lay close to the remains of King John's Hunting Lodge, a medieval moated site with a fishpond. Medieval features had been recorded 150m to the north. During the evaluation, archaeological deposits were revealed which were likely to have been associated with the creation of a garden in the late 1800s. Three post-holes which may have formed part of a fence line, two possible pit bases, and a truncated semi-circular gully were recorded. All seemed to have been post-medieval garden features, and contained residual medieval pottery. Prehistoric, Roman and post-medieval sherds were also recovered. [AIP] |
