Abstract: |
The archaeological watching brief was undertaken following the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists Standard and Guidance for an Archaeological Watching Brief (2020a), and in accordance with the WA excavation manual (2017). The watching brief was followed by an assessment of the data as set out in the Standard and Guidance for an Archaeological Watching Brief (CIFA 2020a) and the Standard and Guidance for the Collection, Documentation, Conservation and Research of Archaeological Materials (CIFA 2020b). The work identified the presence of two marked graves, one dated to 1725, which were beneath the chancel floor which was laid in 1873. Archaeological finds of mainly late post-medieval date came from a rubble layer beneath the tiled floor comprising 8 sherds of pottery (657g), five fragments of human bone (103g), 115g of animal bone, a padlock and two nails and 379g of shell. These finds are highly likely to be associated with the laying of the floor in 1873. |
