Earthwork platform, St James' Church, Weddington
Description of this historic site
A possible rectangular platform can be seen on aerial photographs and LiDAR imagery. The adjacent church is known to be on raised ground and there is a possibility that the two earthworks could be joined.
Can you help?
Notes about this historic site
1 2 Platform adjacent to the church of St James, Weddington is visible on aerial photographs and LiDAR imagery, as is the platform on which the church sits.
3 Ridge and furrow was identified by geophysical survey in the field containing the platform adjacent to the church. This may be overlain by the platform feature or butt up against it.
4 A field observation by Tom Welsh suggests that the two platforms are joined; forming a larger platform. The church is offset to the north-east of this larger platform.
