Abstract:		 ARCUS were commissioned by Jones Homes Limited to undertake an archaeological evaluation of the surrounding environment of Hanson House, a complex of grade II listed buildings thought to have originated in the sixteenth century. Recent dendrochronological analysis of timbers from the buildings has provided dates of AD1455/6 (barn) and AD1448 (house). The evaluation comprised a total of ten trenches evenly distributed around the site. Only two of the trial trenches, Trenches 5 and 8, revealed features of archaeological interest. The trenches were located to the north (Trench 5) and east (Trench 8) of the listed stone-built rectangular (barn) building Two separate ditch features were identified, one of which contained three sherds of medieval pottery. The size and profile of the ditches suggests they were contemporary. The evidence recovered to date suggests a limited amount of activity on the site in the medieval period, probably related to agricultural or domestic enclosures.
