Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was carried out by Birmingham Archaeology during July 2007 within the grounds of Croxden Abbey, Croxden, Staffordshire (NGR SK 0653 96), a Scheduled Ancient Monument. The work was undertaken on behalf of English Heritage and was undertaken during the excavation of trenches to accommodate concrete foundations for new display panels. Three hand excavated trenches were monitored by an archaeologist during the watching brief. One trench revealed evidence of possible stone foundations that may either be associated with the infirmary building, or another structure to the west of the infirmary. Finds of medieval date including sherds of pottery and tile were recovered from the topsoil in all of the trenches. |
