Abstract: |
This document covers the results of historical research, and non-intrusive site visits, coupled to later excavation work (report see JMHS Report 2205b) at Attington House, Tetsworth, Oxfordshire. Though little information was recorded on the Historic Environment Record, it is apparent that this is due to a lack of research rather than archaeological features. The initial desk-based assessment (of which this is a revision after an evaluation) located a number of features in the immediate gardens of Attington House (an embankment, folly moat, and earlier buildings). From the evaluation it is apparent that a number of archaeological features are of a later medieval date or earlier, but with other features significantly later. Many of the features have been identified and explanations proposed. The architectural assessment of the house suggests that the east end of the building is older than previously thought, with part of the standing structure dating to the 17th century. |
