Abstract: |
An evaluation was carried out at the proposed site of a residential development, located adjacent to a church which was of Anglo-Saxon origin and which contained Roman brick and tile within its fabric. References in the Domesday Book to fishponds on the site, the Saxon and medieval construction phases of the church and the close proximity of the 16th century Little Bardfield Hall supported the suggestion of settlement in the immediate area of the site. During the evaluation, a ditch containing two sherds of late 12th-early 13th century pottery was recorded and a small ditch or gully was revealed. This was on a similar alignment to the ditch, but contained no dating evidence. A watching brief was subsequently carried out during groundworks for a road to service the development. This identified a large area of disturbance from the footings of a modern building, but failed to identify any further archaeological activity. [Au(adp)] |
