Abstract: |
An archaeological Evaluation was carried out on land at Condover Hall, Condover, Shropshire. The Evaluation was implemented because of the potential for archaeological remains on the site, as identified by previous archaeological mitigation and a Heritage Statement. The work was carried out by L - P : Archaeology. This report has been prepared by Rebecca Jones of L - P : Archaeology on behalf of Morris Properties. The Hall is Grade I Listed and many of the associated features are Grade II Listed, including the terraced gardens, walls and park to the south. The church just outside the northwest boundary of the Hall is Grade II* Listed. The historic core of the village, which includes the Hall and church, is a designated Conservation Area. Three trenches were excavated on the site at predefined locations to evaluate the area of the proposed netball court and the footprint of the proposed accommodation block. A single archaeological feature was identified during this trial trenching exercise. A northwest to southeast aligned ditch was exposed at 1.6m below ground level in Trench 3. The finds assemblage comprised residual Post Medieval material culture. The Evaluation concludes that the archaeological resource of the site is minimal and of low significance. |
