| Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation, comprising a single trial trench, was undertaken on behalf of St Andrew's Parochial Church Council, Shilton, in advance of a new extension north of the present outer north aisle. The earliest part of the church dates to the 13th century and the outer north aisle dates to 1865. Four coffin inhumations and a further grave cut were recorded in the evaluation, the highest remains at a depth of 0.78m below present ground level. Two of the graves had been truncated and all the graves had been covered by a layer of brownish yellow clay, possibly associated with groundworks for the 1865 outer north aisle. Finds of prehistoric flint, medieval floor tile, post-medieval pottery and ironwork and an early 18th-century wig curler were also recovered. |
