Description

{1} A watching brief was conducted during excavation of foundations for an extension. The area of a new extension was investigated due to the previous discovery of medieval burials immediately adjacent. The investigation revealed evidence for probable medieval terracing upon which was an area of severe burning which contained two fragments of reused masonry, probably from the medieval church. This had been buried by post-medieval dumping to form a farmyard which was later landscaped as a garden. No evidence of further burials was revealed. Information from OASIS Online Form. Site code: FOCB14
