Abstract: |
In February 2017, KDK Archaeology Ltd undertook a programme of Observation and Recording of St Botolph's Church, Aspley Guise, Bedfordshire during groundworks to improve drainage along the north elevation of the church. The north aisle of the church was constructed in several phases starting in the medieval period, and has undergone extensive rebuilding, mostly in the 19th century. The original construction, as well as later rebuilding phases, was evident in the different construction methods observed in the exposed foundations. Trenches also revealed the remains of a 19th century boiler house adjacent to the church and an undated brick built crypt near the modern Chapter House. Although one of the trenches ran through the churchyard, only a single, disturbed burial was encountered during this exercise. |
