Time Team - Mont Orgueil Castle Gorey, St Martin, Jersey - Archaeological Evaluation and Assessment of Results
Published: 2011-02-01

Time Team - Llancaiach Fawr Manor Treharris, Caerphilly, Gwent - Archaeological Evaluation and Assessment of Results
Published: 2011-02-01
Subjects: Modern Structure, Post-Medieval Structure
The Time Team evaluation, comprising eight trenches, found no conclusive evidence of any medieval structure (or associated activity) thought to have occupied the Site prior to the current Manor House, although one fragment of medieval roof tile was recovered in a later deposit. Activity in the vicinity of the house was predominantly post-medieval and modern, associated with the use of the Manor [...]
Time Team - Northern Green, Westminster Abbey - Archaeological Evaluation and Assessment of Results
Published: 2010-12-01
Subjects: Medieval Funerary Site, Medieval Religious Site, Medieval Structure, Post-Medieval Religious Practice, Post-Medieval Structure
The evaluation aimed to further investigate these remains. Fieldwork consisted of five machine-excavated trial trenches as well as geophysical and topographic surveys. The trenches examined salient features of the Lshaped structure. The use of a distinctive mortar was found to unify and characterise all elements of this structure, showing it to be of a single phase of construction, although at [...]
Time Team - Litlington, Cambridgeshire - Archaeological Evaluation and Assessment of Results
Published: 2010-11-01
Subjects: Romano-British Funerary Site, Roman Villa
The evaluation carried out by Time Team, comprising ten trenches and eleven testpits, was able to confirm the position of the ‘Litlington villa’, though it was not possible to determine its full extent or layout. Newspaper accounts of the villa from the time of its discovery, describing it as being a very well appointed structure containing 30 rooms and a bathhouse, with many fine tessellated [...]

Subjects: Bronze Age Agriculture, Bronze Age Ceremony, Bronze Age Funerary Site, Bronze Age Industry, Bronze Age Settlement, Iron Age Agriculture, Iron Age Ceremony, Iron Age Enclosure, Iron Age Industry, Romano-British Agriculture, Romano-British Enclosure
The excavation uncovered evidence for activity dating from the Neolithic until the early Romano-British period. Much of this activity could be dated with some confidence on the basis of the associated finds and stratigraphy. This activity includes the establishment of a prehistoric field system with associated settlement activity, probably in the Middle Bronze Age, and the expansion of [...]

Time Team - Norman Cross Camp, Cambridgeshire - Archaeological Evaluation and Assessment of Results
Published: 2010-09-01
Subjects: Military Artefacts, Modern Structure
An evaluation comprising nine trenches confirmed the basic layout of the prisoner of war internment centre and provided some detail of its construction and use. A possible Romano-British pit was also located. Evidence suggests that the camp was constructed directly upon the subsoil, creating a buried soil horizon. Further earlier archaeological features may therefore survive beneath the later [...]
Time Team - Sutton Courtenay, Oxfordshire - Archaeological Excavation and Assessment of Results
Published: 2010-08-01
Subjects: Anglo-Saxon Hall, Anglo-Saxon Settlement, Prehistoric Enclosure
The excavation, comprising four trenches, confirmed the location of several features previously identified from aerial photographs, but also demonstrated the limitations of both aerial photographs and geophysical survey data in the precise identification of features. Two trenches over a feature (structure 500), identified from aerial photographs and interpreted as an Anglo-Saxon ‘Great Hall’, [...]
Existing Designated Historic Assets: Transition to Historic Marine Protected Areas and Identification of Biodiversity / Geodiversity Value
Published: 2010-08-01
Subjects: Marine Archaeology
WA was commissioned by Historic Scotland to carry out a rapid desk-based study on the possible transition of up to 15 existing designated historic sites to Historic Marine Protected Area (Historic MPA) status, as a consequence of the Marine (Scotland) Act 2010 (asp 5).
Time Team - Piercebridge, County Durham - Archaeological Evaluation and Assessment of Results
Published: 2010-06-01
Subjects: Early Medieval Artefacts, Romano-British Defences, Romano-British Settlement, Romano-British Structure
The evaluation located a previously unknown area of activity to the north-west of the fort, dating to the 2nd century AD, although the precise nature of the activity in this area was not conclusive. The types of domestic refuse recovered would be consistent with civilian settlement, although a large area of cobbling could imply a more official or military structure. The alignment of features in [...]
Land at Hudson's Field, Salisbury, Wiltshire - Archaeological Watching Brief Report
Published: 2010-06-01
Subjects: Prehistoric Settlement
Nine features were revealed and excavated during the course of the Watching Brief. A single pit was recorded at the north-eastern end of the access road strip and a further pit and three postholes were recorded at the south-western extremity of the car park strip. The north-eastern pit contained large amounts of burnt flint, the other to the south-west contained struck flint and two sherds of [...]
Time Team - Hopton Castle, Shropshire - Archaeological Evaluation Report
Published: 2010-04-01
Subjects: Medieval Defences, Medieval Structure, Military Artefacts, Post-Medieval Structure
The evaluation, comprising seven trenches, identified three major phases of activity on the Site: medieval, early post-medieval and mid 17th century, involving a siege during the Civil War, in 1644. As well as reviewing what was previously known about the upstanding remains of the medieval tower house, the evaluation also found evidence for the medieval moat and curtain wall. A large cellared [...]

An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Channel 4’s ‘Time Team’ at Burford Priory in Oxfordshire, to investigate the remains of the medieval Hospital of St John the Evangelist, rebuilt as a grand house after the Dissolution, but still incorporating some medieval elements. The evaluation, involving shovel test pitting, geophysical survey, and evaluation trenching, formed part of an ongoing [...]
