Abstract: |
John Moore Heritage Services conducted a watching brief at the location of Saint Peter's Church, Hook Norton, Oxfordshire (NGR SP 35510 33123) during the insertion of new drainage. The investigation was extremely productive in that it confirmed an earlier phase of the building that was previously unknown, possibly relating to a 8th or 9th century phase of the church. There are also indications of a series of other structures in the churchyard, which are essentially undated but must presumably be High Medieval (1066-1400) or earlier. The church has previously been associated with the location of a minster church. The new evidence is for an early church but defining a proper status for this church is more problematic in the light of certain historical developments. |
