Description

South End lies between the known nuclei for medieval settlement. To understand fully the morphology of the medieval village, it is essential to establish whether the area of South End too was occupied at an earlier period. Shallow deposits and the recovery of a single sherd of medieval pottery both indicate that this plot lies over the fields of the medieval vilage (B1).
