Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was carried out in advance of a proposed extension to the western side of the house, and lay within SAM no. 20421 - the 'Town Defence' and castle earthworks. The evaluation revealed evidence of settlement that fell broadly into three periods; pre-12th century, 12th to early 13th century i.e. late Saxo-Norman period and the 13th/14th century medieval period. The concentration of occupation evidence spanned just 300 years, from the 12th through to the late 14th century, which corresponded with the known expansion of Swavesey during this period. Four pieces of worked flint were also found suggesting a prehistoric presence. [Au(abr)]
