Abstract: |
A previous archaeological evaluation carried out on the site had uncovered a ditch, two possible beam slots and a cobbled area dating from the medieval to post-medieval periods. A targeted excavation was requested in order to further characterise these features. The excavation revealed further evidence for medieval settlement activity in the area. A series of deposits dating to the thirteenth century was examined at the northern end of the site. These deposits probably represent a truncated boundary ditch and could be earthworks associated with the former medieval manor nearby. A small gully also dating to the medieval period was identified. The cobbled surface uncovered during the evaluation was further revealed, as well as an adjacent occupation layer dating to the late medieval period. Following the excavation, a watching brief was requested to monitor the levelling of the site should further archaeological features be revealed. The watching brief uncovered more of the possible ditch in the north of the site, but no other archaeological remains were identified. |
