Abstract: |
Archaeological watching brief inside the church t identified a post-medieval brick ?wall and a post-medieval/modern brick soakaway associated with an earlier relocation of the font. The footings of the south and west wall were also recorded. The exterior works involved the excavation of a narrow pipe trench and identified some in situ skeletal remains at depth, along with grave cuts and soils and levelling/ clearance layers containing disarticulated remains. The upper levelling layer recorded, below the modern roadway, is likely to relate to the final use of the graveyard for burials in 1857. |
