Abstract: |
Headland archaeology undertook a series of archaeological works at Penn and Tylers Green Football Club comprising geophysical survey and a strip, map and record. The geophysical survey findings included an irregular ditchlike feature of uncertain origin (probably a Medieval/post-medieval field boundary). Various other strong disturbances were also identified. Those at the west of the site are likely to be recent, but the strong magnetic activity to the east could represent either modern dumping and infilling, or a substantial accumulation of medieval tile making debris (or perhaps a combination of both). These have a separate OASIS entry: headland4-159108. The strip, map and record revealed evidence for rubbish pitting predating the recreation ground. It also found irregular boundaries marked by ditches. A series of features were recorded associated with the football club including foundation trenches interpreted as the remnants of stands for spectators and the bases of lighting. At the edges of the excavation there were extensive areas of modern rubbish pitting which were contemporary with the football ground and recent agricultural use. |
