Description

{1} Nearly half of the nave was excavated in 1969, ten years after the church became redundant. The church was in use by at least 1300-1350. [Information from NRHE: Mr Hall suggests that copies of the site archives accompanied the finds from most of his investigations when they were passed into the custody of the respective county museums in 1988. The originals are still in his keeping. (Mr D Hall. E-mail 13. 9. 04.).]
