Medieval deposits were revealed during trial trenching (Trench 15) and open area excavation (WPB3 01) to the north of Weston village during investigation of the Weston Bypass in 2001 to 2003. The deposits included ditches dating from the mid 11th to mid 12th which contained pottery sherds dating from the same period.
The medieval ditches relate to the expansion of Weston around the time of the construction of St. Mary's Church in the late 12th centuryand to the drainage and field divisions on the northwest side of the village. {1}{2}
