Abstract:
The watching brief and previous desk-based assessment suggested the site had been occupied since at least medieval times. The earliest pottery found dated from the 11th or 12th century. No medieval features were found associated with the conjectured farm site, shown on early maps, although heavy concentrations of medieval pottery suggested contemporary occupation. A large isolated medieval pit, thought to have been a cess/rubbish pit was identified. Structural evidence on the farm site included a possible brick chimney-stack, with foundations made of brick kiln wasters believed to have been attached to a timber building. A short length of flimsy brick wall a few metres SE of the conjectured chimney was thought to have been either a farmyard wall or the south end of the farm building. To the immediate west of the conjectured chimney a line of eight post-medieval postholes was found. These were thought to have been part of a farmyard boundary fence, although one wall of a timber outbuilding was possible. Elsewhere old field ditches had been filled in during the later post-medieval period. Large scatters of broken ceramic and other rubbish with a terminal date of the mid-19th century confirmed map evidence for the abandonment of the site between c.1840 and 1870. [Au(abr)]
