Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in November 2014 at Land at Whychurch Farm, Malmesbury, Wiltshire. Forty one trenches were excavated. The archaeological evidence from the evaluation indicates that the site was characterised by low-scale agricultural activity in the later Iron Age, where ditches on north-east/south-west alignments may have formed land parcels. The evaluation also identified pits and ditches dated to the medieval period, when the site would probably have formed a part of the lands belonging to Malmesbury Abbey that were cultivated by the tenants living in the nearby hamlet of Filands. |
