Abstract:
Albion Archaeology was commissioned to carry out archaeological observation of improvement works at All Saints'' Church, which stands at the north-western edge of the village of Turvey, seven miles west of Bedford. The improvement works comprised the installation of kitchen and toilet facilities within the base of the tower, which involved the removal of the wooden floor in the tower and the excavation of service trenches. The attendance of an archaeologist had been requested by the Diocesan Archaeological Advisor. The village of Turvey is Anglo-Saxon in origin, with Turvey Manor mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086. All Saints'' Church is also known to predate the Conquest of 1066; part of its original nave is still extant. The church was subsequently expanded and altered on numerous occasions between the early 13th and late 16th centuries, with the last major programme of structural alteration taking place in 1852. No features or deposits of archaeological significance were revealed during the course of the improvement works. A likely reason for this is that the service trenches were not deep enough to encounter archaeological remains. The depth of soil observed in the churchyard may indicate that the subsoil represents a layer of made ground.
