Abstract: |
The watching brief consisted of the archaeological recording of 34 small planting pits along the inside of the north-west, north-east and south-east walls of the Walled Garden. The pits had been previously excavated under the oversight of Historic England. Modern activity was recorded in all 34 trenches, consisting mostly of layers of garden-related deposits, resulting from previous and continued use as planting beds, as well as repairs to the Georgian wall. Limited truncation was also seen from fencing work which was erected prior to 1976 when the site was designated as a Scheduled Ancient Monument. Below the modern activity was a deposit which was probably the backfill of construction cuts made for the erection of both the Tudor and Georgian walls of the walled garden. There was no dating evidence recovered from these deposits, but it was most likely redeposited material from within the walled garden itself. |
