Abstract:
A 2.5ha area was investigated in advance of the north and eastward enlargement of extraction works. The vicinity is thought to have formed part of a deer park associated with the manor of New Hall during the medieval period. The earliest features were ditches apparently relating to the initial settlement and land enclosure in the early post-medieval period (c. late 16th-17th century). Although the features appeared to be predominantly agricultural in nature, recovered finds suggests that domestic activity was taking place in the vicinity. In the late post-medieval a series of new field boundary ditches were set out on a different orientation, surviving until at least the 1920's. A number of very large pits, possibly initially dug as quarrying features and subsequently left open to accumulate water were also recorded.. These clearly correspond with three ponds shown on maps of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It is likely that they were eventually backfilled during the construction of the World War II airbase at the site.
