Abstract: |
Church House Barn is located to the NE of the large motte and bailey fortification known as Richard''s Castle. The archaeological observation identified the possible remains of part of an extensive outer enclosure established to the E of the castle, into which the barn''s outer walls had been cut. The enclosure post-dated the foundation of the castle and was probably established to protect the parish church and a small settlement established under the protection of the castle. No other finds or features were located. Limited evidence relating to the phasing of the barn was also revealed, comprising three beams or posts that appeared to have formed part of an earlier partitioning arrangement. |
