Abstract:
During late spring and early summer of 2014 English Heritage's Assessment Team (West) undertook a detailed investigation and survey of the earthwork remains surrounding Catridge Farm, Lacock, Wiltshire, as part of an English Heritage National Archaeological Identification Survey (NAIS) pilot project. Settlement shrinkage at Catridge appears to have been a gradual process and not confined to the medieval period. While some tenements were probably lost in the14th or 15th centuries, the casualties of social, economic and environmental change, the 16th and 17th centuries saw a period of investment and rebuilding, a phenomenon witnessed across much of England. Remaining tenements were finally amalgamated around the middle of the 18th century, an estate-led process reflecting a drive towards the adoption of new farming techniques, in a period when more efficient farming methods were seen as vital for boosting agricultural production.
