Abstract:
Evaluation was undertaken following a geophysical resistivity and ground penetrating radar survey earlier in the year. A possible limestone trackway was revealed running from the northern boundary of the churchyard towards the brook in the east. A single medieval pit or posthole and a boundary ditch were also uncovered. A thick buried soil was found in the trenches towards the Newmarket Road end of the site. This was interpreted as a buried soil built up from agricultural use, sporadic flooding and deposition of domestic refuse during the medieval period, possibly stabilising in the post-medieval period. Two sub-rectangular mortar, gravel and stone footings were uncovered in this layer, whilst an early medieval ditch and two postholes were uncovered below it. The majority of the finds date to the medieval period, between the 11th and 16th centuries, when the site was known to have lain close to both the Leper Hospital and the site of the Stourbridge Fair.
