Abstract:
Archaeological recording was carried out during September 2015 at land at Back Lane House, Back Lane, Beckford, Gloucestershire during the erection of a detached dwelling. Back Lane is important historically as a route-way across the Carrant Brook linking the village at Beckford with the main road between Teddington and Evesham (A46) and this may have been the reason for the establishment of a small outlying settlement or separate manor south of Beckford Village probably centred around the early C17 Manor House which may lie on the site of an earlier structure. Archaeological work in 2014 at land between Sunnymead and Malthouse Cottages revealed features of indicative of occupation and of probable Late C11 date (Cook, 2014). The watching brief in 2015 further to the south on land adjacent to Back Lane House was smaller in scale. The large steep-sided pit (106), at least 1.40m deep had truncated deposits within the south-east corner of the building plot. A single, almost complete jug recovered from near to the base of the pit suggests a date for its excavation ranging from the C16 to early C20. The two large limestone quoins observed at the base within the fill (105) were clearly re-deposited. The undated limestone rubble and pebble deposit (107) that filled the upper part of the pit and was spread over a wide area to the west of the feature may be a dumped deposit or the remains of a rudimentary hardstanding or track. Stone deposit 103 may represent the remains of a former narrow wall, but this could not be confirmed given the limited scope of the excavation
