Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken by Oakford Archaeology in January 2016 at St Mary's Church, Aylesbeare, Devon. The site lies immediately to the south and west of the church, extending from the west of the tower, running to the south of the church path and lych gate. The church is grade II* listed. A watching brief was maintained during works associated with the construction of toilet block, a new water main and associated drainage works. The new toilet was to the west of the tower. The new water main then headed south-west before connecting to an existing main adjacent to the lych gate. The work involved ground reduction extending to a depth of between 0.3-0.9m in the graveyard. Inspection of the trenching showed no evidence of archaeological features. The trenching recovered 3 fragments of medieval floor tile from the charnel soil. |
