Full Description

THE SETTLEMENT OF SOUTH INGLEBY LIES ON FLAT GROUND SOUTH OF A SHALLOW VALLEY WHICH SEPARATES IT FROM NORTH INGLEBY. THE PRESENT SURVEY SHOWS EVIDENCE OF A COMPLETE REARRANGEMENT OF THE SETTLEMENT BEFORE ITS DESERTION, WITH DIRECT LINKS TO THE DEVELOPMENTS AT NORTH INGLEBY. THE EVIDENT SIMILARITY OF DEVELOPMENT IN THE TWO SETTLEMENTS, TOGETHER WITH THE FACT THAT THESE SEEM TO IGNORE THE ANCIENT TOWNSHIP BOUNDARY BETWEEN THE TWO, ENCOURAGES THE SUGGESTION THAT THE MAJOR CHANGES OCCURED WHEN THEY WERE IN THE SAME TENURE UNDER THE DAUBNEYS IN C14 AND THAT THE DEMOGRAPHIC AND ECONOMIC CHANGES OF THAT PERIOD WERE BOTH A CAUSE OF AND PROVIDED THE SCOPE FOR THESE PHYSICAL CHANGES. {1}{2}{3} DURING A WATCHING BRIEF ON A PIPELINE THROUGH THE DESERTED VILLAGE A SMALL AREA OF DISCRETE LIMESTONE METALLING IN A CLAY MATRIX WAS NOTED. THIS WAS IDENTIFIED AS POSSIBLY THE REMAINS OF A TRACKWAY ASSOCIATED WITH THE VILLAGE STREET ALTHOUGH THERE WAS DIRECT DATING EVIDENCE. THERE WAS NO OTHER SIGNIFICANT ARCHAEOLOGICAL DEPOSITS AND THIS MAY BE TAKEN TO INDICATE THAT THE COURSE OF THE PIPELINE ALONG THE CURRENT ROAD IS CENTRED ON A PRE- EXISTING MEDIEVAL TRACK OR ROAD, AS SUGGESTED BY PAUL EVERSON. {4}, HTM 12 M
