Description: | PRN 23944
A walkover survey identified a general scatter of post medieval material across the site. {1}
Further field walking also provided a general scatter of post medieval pottery and finds across the site, this even spread suggests a manuring scatter. {2}
Trial trenching revealed a series of post-medieval ditches, orientated east-west across the entire sited. These ditches have been interpreted as a continuation of medieval dylings or ridge and furrow from the medieval period. A small quantity of medieval pottery was recovered from across the site and is thought to be more evidence of a manuring scatter and that the land was used for agriculture during this period. {3}{4}
Focused on TF2364 2369 fifteen pieces of post medieval brick were recovered from the site. A large quantity of this amount was grouped together; some of the pieces appeared undefined and were perhaps wasters. This could be suggestive of a brick-making site in the vicinity, however this small assemblage probably means that this site was used for dumping of material. {3}{4} | Subjects: | General Archaeology | Temporal: | 1540 - 1900 | Source: | Lincolnshire County Council | Identifier: | http://www.lincstothepast.com/Records/Re... | Go to resource |
