Description
{1} The first phase north of the farmhouse comprised a continuous trench. A sequence of foundations beneath the existing building was noted, but no other surviving archaeological remains were encountered. The trenches measured 0.60m wide and 1.3m deep. The second phase comprised six trenches in the field to the north of the farmyard and one leading into the farmyard itself, all radiating from a 7m by 4m sump. Archaeological remains in Trenches 1 and 2 comprised a stone culvert/drain and the foundations of a parallel wall and an undated ditch, all possibly medieval. As a result, the trenches were redirected and no further remains encountered. Site code: XNN:GHF13
