The deep past?

Trench A: the 'well'


Saturday: the rain kept off, mostly, so we got a lot done on Trench A - the 'well'. Nice worked stone on the outer face and the potential for more under the dump of stone. Hopefully we can open up the next 10m x 10m trench on Wednesday, as the farm manager was not available yesterday. This trench has produced new information about the house, not mentioned in any archive we know about. That adds to the Great Drain as new history for the village.


Not just thrown up, the structure is solid and well made
