Abstract:
Excavation provided a section through a buried soil horizon that produced pottery of exclusively 12th/13th century date. Evidence of the surface of the 19th century farmyard that formerly occupied the site was also encountered. The area of the southern extension was found to have been disturbed by drainage and services but the remnant of a buried soil was observed sealing a small undated feature containing sand-stone cobbles which lay immediately above the geological natural.
