Description
despite its proximity to known medieval occupation, this TP failed to produce the quantities of material that might have been predicted had this continued east. It must be supposed, therefore, that the open fields fo Leckhampstead extended to the road at this point, that occupation was not continuous along the northern side of the road. The zone identified to the west through fieldwalking is quite possibly the original South End, the name migrating to the north with the construction of the modern End. Certainly this is suggested on the first edition OS maps. If this is the case, then South End appears to have remained distinct from the original Barretts End at Weatherhead Farm (B1).
