Description
Striped area of tennis court was c. 34x17m with 0.5m of turf and topsoil removed by mechanical digger. There was a slight slope running down from the north to the south of the site. The exposed earth in the area was fairly dry and uniform in colour, with the exception of a small rectangular area of lighter coloured earth. Brief surface survey of the stripped area yielded a quantity of medieval pottery and roof tiling. However there was no physical evidence of any medieval buildings in this area.
