Abstract:
The evaluation revealed evidence for the presence of Roman quarry pitting and Medieval features including a boundary ditch, pits and a metalled surface. Cartographic evidence suggests that there was a building present on the site in 1656 and this, in conjunction with the archaeological features recorded trench 3, implies that the Parish Hall overlies the site of a building and its associated yards and boundaries. A large portion of the area encompassed by trenches 1 and 2 was revealed to have been severely truncated by Post-Medieval quarrying, probably for clunch. As a result no earlier remains are thought to have survived within the eastern part of the site. However it is expected that further archaeological remains will be preserved beneath the footprint of the existing Parish Hall as the quarry pitting evident to the east did not extend into this area and the base of the concrete slab upon which the hall was construccted, lay above the level of the archaeological remains.
