Abstract:
An archaeological watching brief was conducted for a re-arrangement of monuments inside the Church of St. Boniface, Bunbury and the trenching required for the construction of new drains and a cesspit on the north and west sides of the church outside the churchyard. The presence of a previous Norman church was known from a study of the church fabric, and the dedication of the church and the village place-name, coupled with the evidence of the Doomsday survey suggest and Anglo-Saxon church on this site. Despite the potential for medieval and early medieval remains on the site no significant archaeological features were revealed by this excavation. [Au(abr)]
