Description

The sequence was as follows: wood block floor, lime concrete, hardcore, orange brown silt with a few small stones. The lowest layer included a Tudor brick beneath another brick. Although natural in origin this layer was clearly disturbed and on the evidence of the bricks may be dated to the 16th century or later. The upper layers were probably of one event related either to 1886-8 restoration or 1927 when oak pews were donated to the church.
