Full Description

During fluxgate gradiometer survey on land at The Poplars, Legbourne, anomalies were identified in the northeastern area of the site. These were interpreted as possible ditches, a partial enclosure and pits. These features may have been part of the medieval settlement of Legbourne. {1}{2} During trial trenching on land at The Poplars, Poplar Lane, Legbourne, in April 2010, Pre-Construct Archaeological Services revealed two ditches, interpreted to be a possible enclosure which contained 13th to 15th century pottery in trench one and a pit which contained 13th to 14th century pottery and animal bone in trench two. {3}{4}
