Description

Monitoring of ground works for a side extension confirmed that the northern and southern foundations were already in place following previous unfinished works in the 1980s while the line of the western foundation was found to be heavily disturbed by modern drains and a water pipe. To the west of the house two trenches were taken to the formation level for the new access which exposed the top of the sandy subsoil; while no archaeological features were visible at this level pottery sherds of medieval and post medieval date were recovered indicative of activity at the site from the 12th/13th century period to the present time (S1).
