Abstract:
Evaluation trenches revealed a concentration of medieval pottery in the SW corner of the site. Excavation of this area revealed an occupation deposit, c 9 x 11m, containing 13th-14th century pottery, charcoal and some burnt bone, overlying a cobbled floor with a possible hearth. There was limited evidence of clay walling. At the S side, wall slots framed a possible entrance or annexe. Rougher cobbles to the E appeared to have been a yard surface. The size of the structure and the quality of the pottery suggested a small, possibly quite short-lived, medieval farm.
