Full Description

Monitoring recorded the remains of a structure comprising two walls with associated foundation trenches. The walls comprised unworked limestone in rough courses 0.6m high, located within steep sided foundation cuts 4.3m apart. An area of metalling overlaying a levelling deposit was recorded to the immediate northwest of the building. The date for the building is uncertain. While a single sherd of medieval pottery dating to the 13th to 14th century was recorded from the foundation cut 19th century Ordnance Survey mapping also records a building in the same location. It was considered possible by the excavators that the medieval sherd was residual, and that the building itself was of post-medieval date, or represents a later rebuilding of an earlier structure. A pit inside the footprint of the building contained post-medieval ceramic building material. {1}{2}{3}
