Abstract: |
In July 2012, Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) carried out a programme of archaeological monitoring and recording of foundation trenches at Gainsthorpe House, Essex, CM5 0NF (NGR TL 5352 0590). The proposed development involves the construction of a two storey extension onto the eastern corner of the existing Gainsthorpe House, a Grade II listed building thought to date from the 16th century. The site lies within the small hamlet of Gainsthorpe, located to the north west of Chipping Ongar. Gainsborough House lies within a moated enclosure (EHER 4233) suggesting settlement on the site may extend further back than the 16th century. Footing trenches for the new extension and a trench for diverted services were mechanically excavated on the 16th July 2012. These excavations took place under strict archaeological supervision. In the event no archaeological features were present although two sherds of medieval (mid 13th - 14th century) pottery were recovered from the topsoil. |
