Abstract:
South West Archaeology Ltd. was commissioned by the Bickleigh Local History Group to undertake a desk-based assessment on Church Green, Bickleigh, Devon. The site is located in the centre of the village on an area of open land south-west of the parish church of St. Mary. The desk-based assessment indicates this site has not been developed in modern times and that any proposed development in this area is likely to disturb buried archaeological deposits or remains of varying levels of significance. Limited evaluation trenching within Church Green in 2013 (AC report D765/2/1) encountered almost no archaeological features, but did note the presence of a buried soil horizon of medieval (c.12th-13th century) date. The presence of Upper Greensand tempered pottery implies that the site was occupied perhaps as early as the 11th century. There is evidence to suggest that the original manor of Bickleigh was located close to the church - possibly including the site itself - as indicated by the presence of potential earthworks on aerial photographs, although these are not visible on LiDAR images. There is very limited evidence for post-medieval activity on the site, and it is likely that any remains encountered would date to the medieval and or earlier periods. Modern activity on the site has also been limited, and it remains a largely open, though neglected green space.
