Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation and excavation was undertaken by ISCA Archaeology in August 2021 at Land Adjacent to The Fountain Head Inn, Berry Hill, Branscombe, Devon. A total of two trenches and an excavation area (measuring 605m²) were excavated. Prior to this phase of work, an archaeological evaluation had been undertaken by AC Archaeology in 2015 which revealed the potential for several medieval to post-medieval field systems, with unabraded pottery ranging from the 11th to the 15th century. The evaluation area was centred just to the northwest of Berry Hill and revealed four separate phases of ditches, most likely relating to field systems dating from XXXX. No direct evidence of settlement activity, such as structural remains, postholes, or beam slots, were noted. It is likely that any settlement was located elsewhere. The two further evaluation trenches only produced evidence of a single undated burnt-out tree throw to the northwest, and a modern borehole to the southwest.
