Full Description
Only a single archaeological feature was encountered within the excavated areas, cutting natural geology in the drainage trench to the north of the chapel. It consisted of a
disturbed, southwest to northeast orientated, drystone wall. It was encountered at the formation level of the drain excavated around the chapel and measured c.1m wide with a single disturbed course of roughly hewn limestone blocks visible. A cut potentially the construction cut but possibly the result of robbing of stone from the wall was also recorded. (1)
A potential occupation layer of 3rd century date, containing frequent pottery, ceramic building material and animal bone sealed the wall. (1)
