Abstract: |
An evaluation was carried out at the proposed site of a housing development, on land to the rear of an early 18th century coaching inn. Prehistoric and Roman artefacts and a number of medieval moated sites had been recorded in the surrounding area. During the evaluation, a ditch which may have represented a former property boundary was observed; sherds recovered from its fill suggested a medieval date. A small amount of possible Roman pottery was found. A layer of cobbles, likely to have been of post-medieval date, was recorded, and a cut linear feature of uncertain function which may have pre-dated the medieval period was noted. It was concluded that further archaeological investigation at the site would probably not be worthwhile. [AIP] |
