Full Description
A trial trench excavated prior to house construction at 13 Church Road Brandon uncovered the remains of three parallel ditches adjoining the existing road. They produced few finds but the pottery suggests that they are likely to have been medieval in origin. A fourth ditch on an oblique alignment to the road was probably the earliest feature on site. It contained a small amount of Late/Saxon - Early Medieval pottery although insufficient to be certain of the dating (S1).
