Time Team - Arkwright's Mill, NCP Car Park, Miller Street, Manchester - Archaeological Evaluation and Assessment of Results
Published: 2006-04-01
Subjects: Modern Structure, Post-Medieval Industry, Post-Medieval Structure
The primary aim of the evaluation was to identify the position of the original mill and the different phases of building and alterations which occurred during its lifetime, and to establish the position of major features such as the mill wheel pit. The project also aimed to investigate the nature of the housing which existed along the south side of Angel Street to the north of the mill [...]
Time Team - Wayneflete Tower, Esher, Surrey - Archaeological Evaluation and Assessment of Results
Published: 2006-03-01
Subjects: Medieval Structure
Eight trenches were excavated in total, with seven trenches in the garden of Wayneflete Tower and a single trench in 57 Pelhams Walk. They were excavated to evaluate the location, extent, character, date, and significance of any underlying archaeology. The archaeological evaluation was only partially successful in achieving its aims, as it was unable to locate the extent of the complex of [...]
Time Team - Brimham Hall, Hartwith, Harrogate, North Yorkshire - Archaeological Evaluation and Assessment of the Results
Published: 2006-03-01
Subjects: Medieval Structure, Post-Medieval Structure
Nine trenches were opened, in the immediate vicinity of the modern farm buildings of Brimham Hall Farm. Two were positioned over the location of Platt’s 1960s investigations and two were subsequently opened adjacent to these to determine the extent of the buildings revealed. Two trenches were subsequently opened over other possible structures where walls had been exposed by cattle trampling, and [...]
Time Team - Applecross Broch, Wester Ross, Highlands - Archaeological Evaluation and Assessment of the Results
Published: 2006-03-01
Subjects: Iron Age Structure
The main aims of the project were to determine whether the rubble remains situated on a sandstone outcrop were indeed remnants of an Iron Age broch structure, and if so to define some of its key characteristics, determine its state of preservation, and date it more precisely within the Iron Age. Evidence suggesting that this may be a broch site includes vague documentary references to a stone [...]
Time Team - Blackpatch, Worthing, West Sussex - Archaeological Evaluation and Assessment of Results
Published: 2006-02-01
Subjects: Bronze Age Ceremony, Bronze Age Funerary Site, Prehistoric Artefacts
An archaeological evaluation conducted for Channel 4’s ‘Time Team’ in Blackpatch, an area known to be rich in prehistoric archaeology. The site is located on Blackpatch Hill, to the west of Findon Village. The evaluation aimed to characterise the date and nature of previous archaeological findings in the area of Blackpatch, particularly those undertaken by John Pull between 1922 and 1932. A [...]
Time Team - Queenborough Castle, Isle of Sheppey, Kent - Archaeological Evaluation and Assessment of Results
Published: 2006-01-01
Subjects: Medieval Artefacts, Medieval Structure, Modern Structure
The fieldwork comprised six machine-excavated evaluation trenches. The evaluation area comprised Castle Green, a large, low mound used as a public area of open grassland in the centre of Queenborough. The mound, which lies at the East end of Queenborough High Street, is all that remains of Queenborough Castle and is a Scheduled Monument (SM Kent 23030). Queenborough Castle was completed in [...]
Time Team - Highborough Hill, Eastry Court and Envrions, Eastry, Kent - Assessment of the Results from the Archaeological Evaluation
Published: 2005-12-01
Subjects: Medieval Artefacts, Medieval Structure, Post-Medieval Structure
The geophysical survey and subsequent excavation in the village failed to find any evidence for features or deposits that might be associated with the postulated Anglo- Saxon palace or settlement. Settlement evidence of this date is difficult to locate archaeologically and it is possible that the remains of Anglo-Saxon structures may lie below extant buildings. No further Anglo-Saxon graves [...]
Time Team - Islip, Oxfordshire - Archaeological Evaluation and Assessment of Results
Published: 2005-11-01
Subjects: Early Medieval Agriculture, Early Medieval Structure, Medieval Structure
The primary aim of the evaluation was to test the assertion that a chapel dedicated to the first Patron Saint of England, Edward the Confessor, and a Saxon palace or a Royal hunting lodge of his father Æthelred ‘Unræd’, were located within the village. Edward himself is believed to have been born in the village. The chapel was recorded as having been converted into a barn sometime before 1718 and [...]
Time Team - Oliver's Meadow, Gordon's Lodge Farm, Hanslope, Nr Grafton Regis, Northamptonshire - Report on an Archaeological Evaluation and as Assessment of the Results
Published: 2005-10-01
Subjects: Medieval Settlement, Medieval Structure
The results of the Time Team excavations, in conjunction with the ongoing excavations of GLAFS appear to indicate that the two enclosures belong to an enclosed medieval rural settlement. The presence of high status fragments of stonework indicate the presence of a substantial masonry building, but no evidence of this has yet been identified. There is little evidence for activity on the site [...]
Time Team - Skipsea Grange, Skipsea, Holderness, East Riding of Yorkshire - Report on an Archaeological Evaluation and an Assessment of the Results
Published: 2005-09-01
Subjects: Early Medieval Artefacts, Early Medieval Settlement, Iron Age Artefacts, Medieval Artefacts, Medieval Settlement, Post-Medieval Agriculture
The evaluation revealed that the extensive archaeological remains on the site belong to several different phases of activity. The earliest of these appears to date to the Iron Age. Although the sherds of pottery recovered from these features are very similar to sherds of Saxon pottery, there is some evidence to support an Iron Age attribution to these sherds. Small quantities of unstratified [...]
Time Team - Ffrith, Flintshire, Wales - Archaeological Evaluation and Assessment of the Results
Published: 2005-08-01
Subjects: Romano-British Artefacts, Romano-British Structure
The results from both the magnetic and resistance geophysical surveys in the playing field (SAM 164a) proved disappointing. The magnetic data were severely distorted by both modern and earlier playground furniture. In addition, metal fences and buildings on the periphery of the survey grids resulted in disturbed areas. The resistance survey identified a few regions of high resistance; however, [...]
Time Team - Glendon Hall, Kettering, Northamptonshire - Assessment of the Results from the Archaeological Evaluation
Published: 2005-07-01
Subjects: Medieval Artefacts, Medieval Funerary Site, Medieval Settlement, Romano-British Funerary Site
The evaluation trenches were located in two areas of the site with the aim of defining the extent of the known medieval cemetery and locating Glendon church (Trenches 1- 7, to the immediate south-east of Glendon Hall), and refining the form and date of the known deserted medieval settlement c. 150m to the east of the Hall (Trenches 8-11). A high status, Romano-British cremation burial was [...]
Time Team - Nether Poppleton, City of York, Yorkshire - Archaeological Evaluation and Assessment of Results
Published: 2005-06-01
Subjects: Anglo-Saxon Artefacts, Medieval Settlement, Medieval Structure, Post-Medieval Settlement, Post-Medieval Structure
The archaeological evaluation was successful in achieving a number of the aims of the project, including establishing the presence of part of the vallum monasteria, the surrounding boundary ditch which encompassed monastic sites. This ditch contained sherds of pottery dated to c. AD 450-850 and is likely to date to the Early/Middle Anglo-Saxon period. The trenches around St. Everilda’s were [...]
Time Team - St Osyth, Essex - An Archaeological Evaluation and an Assessment of the Results
Published: 2005-06-01
Subjects: Early Medieval Religious Site, Early Medieval Settlement, Medieval Religious Site, Medieval Settlement
Small quantities of prehistoric, Roman and Saxon material were recovered, adding to our scant knowledge of these periods in St Osyths’ history. The Domesday Survey mentions St Osyth, which was clearly a thriving settlement before the founding of the first Abbey on the site in AD 1121. The early medieval period saw a marked expansion in St Osyth’s prosperity and in population. Time Team’s work [...]
