Abstract:
In March 2014, Cotswold Archaeology carried out an archaeological excavation at Prior Deram Walk (Site D), Canley, Coventry, Warwickshire. The hamlet of Nether Fletchamstead lay to the immediate south of the excavation site. This settlement declined in the early postmedieval period. By the 18th century, Fletchamstead Farm was the only surviving element of the former hamlet. An 18th-century map shows possible outlying structures to the immediate east of the main farmstead, and the excavation area was located to sample the site of these buildings. The excavation uncovered the heavily-disturbed remains of a series of walls and floor surfaces. Four wall fragments survived from an initial sandstone-built phase, but the majority of the structures were constructed from unfrogged machine-made bricks, reflecting later remodelling of the building. No pre-modern artefacts were present and there were no clear indications of function, although the relatively insubstantial walls indicate that the building was non-domestic in nature. It may have served as a barn or a cattle/storage shed. There was no evidence for activity associated with the deserted medieval hamlet of Nether Fletchamstead. This may indicate that such activity did not extend as far as the excavation site; alternatively, any archaeological remains associated with the hamlet may have removed during modern truncation of the ground level, which was found to be extensive.
