Abstract:
An archaeological evalualtion comprised the excavation and recording of three trenches across a proposed development area. Trenches 1 and 2 contained a series of ditches and a pit, which probably represented Medieval settlement activity. A further feature, present at the west end of Trench 1, remained difficult to interpret; although, it also probably represented Medieval activity. Trench 3 contained a substantial probable quarry, which had been cut into the sloping limestone deposits present at the east of the site. Pottery recovered from the associated in-fill deposits suggested a Medieval date for the feature; although, this material could be residual and, as such, a later date remains possible. The evaluation has identified the presence of features associated with Medieval settlement, as well as a Medieval or later limestone quarry. It is likely that the on-site evidence represents part of the Medieval village centred on St. Lawrence Church. Limited evidence for earlier activity was present in the form of a single sherd of Iron Age pottery and two struck flints.
