Abstract: |
In April 2009 the initial pre-determination phase of a staged programme of archaeological evaluation was undertaken at Sherington Manor, Milton Keynes. A single trial trench was excavated adjacent to a medieval moated site (SAM No: 29471) that lies within the grounds of the manor. Further trial trenches will be required as the development proceeds and will form the subject of future reports. The current document applies to the initial phase of pre-determination evaluation only. A shallow spread containing a mixture of local flint, a small quantity of ceramic building material (cbm), and animal bone was noted at the north-northeast end of the trench. Definitive dating evidence was not present although characteristics of the cbm and the location of the deposit suggest that it may be associated with construction of the nearby 18th century manor house. Finds or features defining activity associated with the medieval moated site (SAM No: 29471) were not observed. |
