Full Description

{1} A feature, possibly a ditch, 1.0m deep, was recorded close to the south-west corner of the new building. The alignment of the ditch was unclear due to later truncation. The fills comprised yellowish-brown sandy clay loam. A single sherd of medieval pottery recovered from the fill was the only pre-modern artefact recovered from the site and dates to the 13th-14th centuries.
