Abstract: |
Monitoring of foundations for a new garden room adjoining the south-eastern gable wall of the existing timber-framed Moat Farm House revealed a made ground layer sealed beneath the present garden soil. This layer contained roof tile and two sherds of medieval (13th-14th -century) pottery and represents the levelling of the interior of the moated enclosure prior to the construction of the present house in the early 17th century. The presence of medieval finds on the site reinforces the presumed medieval date of the surrounding moat and the likelihood that a medieval dwelling preceded the extant house. |
