Abstract: |
A watching brief was commissioned on the Parlour, Greatham during works to convert the redundant parlour into a dwelling. Unfortunately we were unable to monitor the excavation of the foundation trenches as arranged, however the excavation of some test pits and other monitoring that we were able to complete did not recover any evidence of activity on the site before the 18th to 19th centuries. Some posts and a possible chalk surface are associated with this later post medieval activity, and most likely relate directly to the buildings that appeared on the site in the mid 20th century. The evidence from the work undertaken suggests that there was no earlier activity on the site that has left any archaeological evidence, and ties in with the early map evidence which shows that the site was a field. |
