Abstract:
The results of archaeological monitoring during the installation of a new drain and soakaway associated with the replacement of a boiler house with a new above-ground installation. Multiple burials were encountered during the archaeologically controlled excavation of the soakaway trench. A minimum of three main phases of inhumation rows were partly uncovered, which range from likely medieval to post-medieval date. All of the burials were aligned in the traditional Christian manner. The medieval burials were generally in a poorer state of preservation than the post-medieval ones, the majority of which contained evidence for coffins in the form of iron nails and fittings. Remains from a minimum of thirteen individual burials were lifted for reburial, which included three children The northern end of the pathway which currently leads from the north porch to the east-west lane off The Street appears on the 1st Edition OS plan of 1886, although the presence of post-medieval burial rows along its route to the lane suggests that this is a relatively recent arrangement in the history of the churchyard. Finds were small in number and include a late medieval to post-medieval copper-alloy pin, a fragment of lava quern, a piece of medieval brick and a large rim sherd from a post-medieval pancheon or bowl.
