Description
June 2017. Watching brief.
The watching brief recorded the historic fabric of the foundations of Bailiff’s Cottage where it was exposed due to the excavation of service trenches. Monitoring and recording identified the remains of five further masonry structures which may be related to Bailiff’s Cottage. Several of these may have been directly related to one another, possibly representing a single structure. Two segments appear to form parts of the same red brick wall, running approximately parallel to the western edge of Bailiff’s Cottage, for 6m. The recovered Ceramic Building Material is consistently of late post-medieval to early modern date.
