Abstract: |
John Moore Heritage Services carried out a historic building assessment and an archaeological watching brief at the Red Lion, Brill in Buckinghamshire (NGR SP 65566 13804). This determined that although some of the building can be dated to the 17th century as claimed by the RCHME, and other sources, part of the timber frame of the back part of the public house may be considerably older and perhaps the remains of a medieval hall of the later 14th century. Further rebuilding of the structure is evident in the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries. The archaeological watching brief was conducted as part of the below ground refurbishment works on the Red Lion Public House. A kiln was discovered beneath a Phase 2 wall of the building (17th century). The kiln was reasonably well preserved and had surviving evidence of the barrel roof of a firing chamber and dating evidence suggesting a 15th or 16th century origin. It was probably used for tile or pottery manufacture. To the northeast of the public house further archaeological features were identified. |
