Abstract:
In October 2014 Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) carried out an archaeological excavation on land at The Black Barn, Church Lane, Widdington, Essex (NGR TL 5419 3171; Figs.1 - 2). The excavation was commissioned by GP Construction (Cambridge) Ltd and conducted in compliance with a planning condition of Uttlesford District Council, as advised by Essex County Council Historic Environment Branch (ECC HEM), attached to planning approval for the proposed construction of a replacement outbuilding to provide a new pool building (Planning Ref. UTT/13/0433). Widdington Hall lies adjacent to the north, part of an historic church and moated manor complex. The moated site is a Scheduled Ancient Monument (No. 20707), and Widdington Hall is Grade II listed, with parts dating from the 15th century. The moated site is recorded on the Essex Historic Environment Record (HER 205), and was rectangular, though no southern arm survives. The east and west parts are still water-filled, and traces of an outlet ditch are visible in the field to the west. Within the area of the proposed swimming pool building a range of farm buildings are shown on 19th century OS maps, suggesting a farm complex associated with the late 18th/19th century high farming tradition. The site therefore has a potential for remains of medieval and post-medieval occupation associated with the manorial complex and later farm. In the event three modern (19th - 20th century) pits, a drain and a concrete foundation cut were present.
