Popis: | An archaeological evaluation and borehole survey undertaken in advance of development revealed deposits dating mainly to the 19th century. The moat was found to contain shallow original deposits which were sealed by 19th century backfill. The original silting layers contained pollen and plant macrofossil remains indicating species growing in and around the edges of the moat prior to backfilling. The site was overlain by up to 2m of sandy clay as part of a phase of landscaping. The foundations of Moat House were also recorded built over these landscaping deposits which were again dated to the 19th century. |
