Abstract: |
A single T-shaped trench was excavated, in the form of a cross, 4.3m x 2.1m and a leg of 2.5m x 2.2m. A buried churchyard soil was uncovered that contained Roman tile, medieval and post-medieval finds. Part of this deposit had been cut to enable the construction of a wall or wall foundation during the medieval period, possibly a north aisle. Part of a tiled floor, including glazed and decorated tiles was found within the probable aisle. This had been disturbed in the 15th century. Two medieval infant skeletons were recorded within the probable aisle, though it was uncertain whether their inhumation was during the life of the building. A 18th century brick and stone vault was found to have truncated the abandonment deposit of the aisle, was associated with the Sewell family and last used in the 19th century. [Au(adp)] |
