Abstract

On 14th July 2014 an archaeological evaluation was undertaken on land adjacent to the Great Wilbraham Chapel in advance of the construction of a dwelling and garage. Two adjoining trenches (10m and 5m long) were dug at right angles to one another. Within both the natural chalk was reached at between 0.51m and 0.65m depth, but just one archaeological feature, a late postmedieval NW-SE trending flat-bottomed ditch was encountered, the latter most likely an 18th- 19th century boundary which ran parallel to the road, but pre-dated the construction of the chapel (in 1833). No traces of earlier archaeology were found.
