Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Chedburn Dudley, on behalf of the Holy Trinity Church Parochial Church Council, to carry out archaeological investigations in and around Holy Trinity Church, Bradford on Avon. Eleven Test pits were excavated. Evidence of inhumation burials was uncovered in all but one of the Test pits, most of which are likely to date from the 18th or 19th century. One burial did however appear to have been truncated by the 14th-century church tower, which suggests that there are medieval or earlier burials on the site. Stone burial vaults of 19th-century date to the north of the church tower were revealed to have been cut through earlier graveyard deposits within the slope of the hillside. Test pits within the chancel of the church have shown that undocumented burial vaults are sealed beneath mid-19th-century concrete. |
