Description
A watching brief carried out in November 2003 by John Moore Heritage Services during groundworks for the construction of a garage and stripping for a new access drive identified a substantial medieval pond, shown on the 1805 Inclosure map. Late 11th to early 13th century pottery was recovered from the primary fills, and 20th century backfilling or consolidation layers were found sealing the secondary fills. 2 gullies and a possible N-S leat, water chanel or pond were also identified during stripping for a new access drive. See report for detail (B8). NGR to location of medieval pond.
