Abstract:
In November 2017, Cotswold Archaeology carried out an archaeological evaluation on land at Spring Gardens, Wiveliscombe, Somerset (centred at NGR: ST 08165 28040). A total of four trenches were excavated within the site. The evaluation identified post-medieval structures and deposits throughout the site, other than in the east. This demonstrates moderate activity within the site during this period. The presence of two wells demonstrated long term activity. It had been proposed that the boundary wall within the site aligned upon the extent of medieval burgage plots. It was not possible to attain a firm date for this feature. However, it was observed that an earlier undated wall had an identical orientation to the boundary and was adjacent to it, suggesting that this was a previous boundary wall. The extant boundary wall is likely to date to the Post-medieval or modern periods. Archaeological deposits were well preserved, although they had clearly been partially demolished after disuse. They were observed at a minimum depth of 0.84m below the present ground level.
