Full Description
1) Features recorded from the test pitting at the Old Rectory and the excavations at St Eanswith's showed evidence for 15th-16th century occupation of the site. There was also some evidence that the site had been used prior to the 15th century due the presence of pottery dating to the 12th-13th century excavated from test pit 4 at the Old Rectory.
Features from the Old Rectory included:
Rubbish pits with pottery dating to the 15th-16th centuries.
Linear features, likely garden archaeology.
Evidence for a 15th to 16th century structure and associated rubbish pit, although there was no standing structure there was evidence for material associated with the original structure which was demolished in the 1860s.
Features from the St Eanswith Excavations:
Robbed out foundation wall, likely SW end of the building that matches a building seen on the tithe map.
Assemblages which may show evidence for a 15th-16th century structure, which was demolished in the 1860s.
