Full Description
Twin Tree Farm, Norton Disney. Partially extant 19th century farmstead. Regular courtyard with L-plan range plus detached buildings to the third side of the yard. The farmhouse is attached to a range of working buildings. There has been significant loss (greater than 50%) of traditional buildings. Located within or in association with a village. {1}
Remains associated with the use and demolition of some of the former 19th century farm buildings were recorded in January 1997, during archaeological monitoring of new development on land off Main Street. The remains were thought to be associated with a pig house and crewyard that formerly occupied this part of the farmstead, and included part of a brick wall, a pit and a gully, from which a small quantity of cattle bones, all from the same animal, were recovered. A series of mixed layers and dumped deposits were also recorded, from which a small assemblage of late 18th to 20th century pottery was also recovered. {2}{3}
