- Description
- A 6 trench machine-excavated evaluation in the field immediately south-west of Conisbrough Cemetery identified natural glacial deposits and in one trench (#3) a double-ditch with a clay embankment, provisionally interpreted as the plough-truncated remains of the medieval deer park boundary. Also present down-slope of the boundary was a smaller ditch associated with two stone packed post-holes of unknown date. Up-slope from the boundary, a stone packed foundation of unknown date was also identified.
