Type and Period
Description
A Watching Brief on the stripping of a new access road revealed multi period remains which were subsequently excavated. Features recorded included a a number of post-Medieval features associated with the present house and it's garden. For description of Roman and Prehistoric features see EHER 17435 and 17436.
A watching brief was also maintained on the construction of the new wing at Elm Park. This produced no ancient finds or features which perhaps confirms that the bulk of the surviving archaeological deposits are to be found away from the area of the house.
For a description of the cropmarks in the area see EHER 3502.
