Abstract: |
An evaluation was carried out at a proposed development site within the grounds of a Grade I Listed 15th century house. Prehistoric activity and Roman settlement had been recorded in the area, and documentary evidence suggested the existence of a pre-15th century manorial complex. During the evaluation, a wall foundation which had been cut by a pit was recorded. Burnt flints, two probable Mesolithic flints, a sherd of Iron Age pottery, post-medieval pottery and three fragments of human bone were recovered. The skeleton of a dog was found within a pit. A post hole, two Victorian drains and a late post-medieval wall, probably a garden feature, were also recorded. [AIP] |
