Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was carried out between June and October 2010. The proposed development lies within the former extent of Norsey Wood, a medieval deerpark of national importance (Scheduled Ancient Monument 29428). In addition to the medieval and post-medieval woodland, there is considerable evidence for prehistoric settlement within the wood (EHER 5307). The place-name evidence suggests that the woodland may have been enclosed prior to 1066. The current woodland bank dates to some time between 1291 and 1323. |
