Abstract: |
A planning application is to be submitted for the construction of a new dwelling within the grounds of the former George Inn, Maulden. The archaeological field evaluation comprised the excavation of four trial trenches, 11-25m in length, to the rear of the property. Trench 1 in the south-east corner of the development was targeted on a linear range of outbuildings shown on the 1883 1st edition OS map and identified as possible stables. Trenches 2-4 were located on higher ground to the north-west of Trench 1, an area shown on the 1883 map as an orchard. Post-medieval pits and the remains of outbuildings were recorded in Trench 1. One late medieval/early post-medieval ditch and a possibly associated pit were recorded in Trenches 3 and 4. The ditch was on the same alignment as a property boundary shown on the 1797 Inclosure Map of Maulden. Two later small post-medieval ditches were also recorded in Trenches 2 and 4. They may have been internal divisions, or garden features, within the plot shown on the Inclosure Map. This work was predeeded by building recording |
