Abstract: |
Over September and October 2020, a programme of archaeological monitoring and recording took place during groundworks associated with the conversion of a linked range of traditional stone barns, at Temple Farm, Temple Bruer in the district of North Kesteven in Lincolnshire, LN5 0DG (Fig. 1).
The stone barns are located within the central group of agricultural buildings at Temple Farm, with PCAS Archaeology Ltd monitoring the previous phase of the redevelopment in 2018. Although the farm buildings are not specifically listed, they fall within the historic curtilage of the grade II listed former farmhouse (List Entry 1261369).
Furthermore, the proposed redevelopment is situated within the location of a 12th century Knights Templar Preceptory (HER 60735), which was recorded to be the second richest in England by 1308. In the surrounding area, medieval croft remains have survived as cropmarks, likely to be associated with the preceptory (HER 62765). It is also within close proximity to Ermine Street, a Roman road (HER 60638).
No significant archaeological remains were observed during the programme. No archaeological features were exposed, and no dating evidence was recovered; the redevelopment groundworks exposing a simple stratigraphic sequence of modern construction levels over natural deposits. |
