Abstract: |
A narrow service trench was cut on the northern side of St Mary's Church. No finds of archaeological interest were revealed and the bulk of the trench was cut along the line of an earlier service trench. At one point, opposite the NW corner of the church's north transept, a small area of undisturbed deposits was revealed in the south side of the trench. Buried at a depth of about 0.20m, the lower layer appeared to represent the first significant stratified archaeological deposit and probably constituted the tail of the adjacent medieval rampart bank. The general absence of any disturbed human bones within the excavations could suggest that few, if any, burials had been made outside this part of the church. |
