Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken by South West Archaeology Limited during the demolition of the boiler house and store, and during the construction of a new extension and services to the northwest of St. Peter's Church, Bratton Fleming. Most of the existing fabric of the church dates from the 19th century. A coal shed was added in 1910 and a new heating system requiring a boiler was installed in 1919, this was housed in a lean-to structure to the north of the store. The watching brief consisted of recording the demolition of the boiler house and store and monitoring the insertion of footings and drainage for the new extension. Finds (other than an architectural fragment and Sgraffito Ware from the hedge bank) were all recovered from the topsoil, and included a relatively large quantity of domestic material given. The presence domestic waste, predominantly from the 18th century, may correspond with the decline of the church which seems to have occurred at this time. |
