Full Description

{1} An elongated pit was identified in the south-western corner of the excavated area, approximately 1m from the north-west edge. It was 1.20m wide and 0.20m deep and was aligned roughly north-east to south-west. At least 3m of its length was visible, as it was overlain on its north-eastern extremity by layer. The fill was a mid brownish-grey silty clay that contained several sherds of medieval and post-medieval pottery as well as glass, clay tobacco pipe and animal bone.

{2} A watching brief by Cotswold Archaeology recorded a post-medieval/modem stone-lined cesspit.
