Description

NRHE data transfer: Monitoring of a new soakaway and foundation trenches for a rear extension to a Grade II* building that dates in origin to the later 13th century with an extensive 16th century re-modelling and later alterations and extensions revealed a pit of later post-medieval date and a few stray pottery sherds of 18th/earlier 19th century date. The largely negative results of the monitoring indicate that the original medieval aisled hall did not extend into the area of the rear extension on the north-eastern corner of the building as it stands today.
