Type and Period (2)

Full Description

{2} Features included a medieval pit with a C14th pot sherd, this sealed by a post medieval yard and later outbbuildings. SP76785791.
Though of little archaeological interest these discoveries point to the need for further work on the village to establish its possible origins as a poly-focal settlement. There is evidence to suggest that the village had two distinct parts.
