Abstract: |
The Old Stables lies within the medieval form of Dorstone, close to the location of Dorstone Castle (ref HSM 1559). Two sample trenches were excavated by machine in the proposed access area at The Old Stables but no significant archaeological deposits were revealed. Each trench revealed three contexts, with topsoil overlying two subsoil deposits. No natural deposits were exposed on the site and thus there is a possibility that archaeological deposits may be present below the required 0.5m depth. A significant height difference evident between the proposed parking area and the adjacent garden suggests that the deposits encountered may represent redeposited materials excavated during the original construction of the property. |
