Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken at Gable House, Priors Hardwick, Warwickshire (NGR 447095, 256186). It was undertaken on behalf of CgMs Consulting, whose client intends to construct a new summer house on the side of the existing building, for which a planning application has been submitted (ref. 12/00121/FUL). The village of Priors Hardwick is thought to have its origins in at least the 11th century and various archaeological features throughout the village are thought to date from that period onwards. The medieval village is considered to have been mostly to the south and east of the 13th century church, with the area in which the development site is located having been occupied from the postmedieval period onwards. The results of this watching brief go some way to confirm this as one wide ditch, possibly for drainage, was identified which contained material of 17th-19th century date and was sealed by topsoil with 19th-20th century debris. |
