Description

A programme of archaeological monitoring and recording was conducted during groundworks for the construction of a new dwelling on land at Laburnum Cottage, Middlefield Lane, Glentham. A number of late post-medieval and early 20th century features were noted during the monitoring, but no significant earlier features were identified. The features encountered comprised a Victorian or early 20th century brick-lined drain, an irregular shaped pit, from which sherds of 18th to 20th century pottery and animal bone fragments were recovered, and a spread of demolition debris in the south-eastern corner of the site. Mid to late post-medieval pottery, brick and tile fragments were recovered from this spread, along with a likely redeposited fired clay and shell-tempered object, thought to possibly be the remains of a Roman kiln prop. {1}{2}
