Abstract/Summary

A proposed house site is that of a former walled Victorian Kitchen Garden of the period pre-1885- c1980. Although historic maps suggest an old road or hollow-way was aligned close to the north of the site where the Old Rectory now stands, there is no evidence of a foregoing frontage close to this point, nor are significant finds reported from the area. Kitchen gardening is a repeatedly destructive process, much reducing potential for the site to retain archaeology which, if present, would probably have been related to rear gardens pre-1805
