The site was located within the historic core of Bingham, Nottinghamshire. The foundation trench was ‘U’ shaped and measured 4.1m north-south x 0.6m wide with arms measuring 2.4m x 0.6m wide (north end) and 1.3m x 0.6m wide (south end). It was excavated to a depth of 1m below the ground surface. The area was hand excavated by spade under archaeological supervision. The stratigraphic sequence of the area shows the natural mudstone overlain by a series of modern levelling deposits. These deposits had been cut by a series of modern plastic pipe trenches. As a result of the intrusion of these trenches no archaeology was surviving within the limits of the excavation. The animal bone that was recovered from within one context included two teeth identified as being from a horse. Whilst they were recovered from a context that also contained plastic and so are likely to be redeposited, they could support anecdotal evidence suggesting the former use of the site as stables.
