Medieval settlement features, 22 Coton End, Warwick

1 A number of cut features and a wall, indicating Medieval burgage plot boundaries, together with evidence of back-plot activity, were recorded during evaluation at Coten End. Two northwest-southeast aligned ditches, a single gully or beam slot and pit all represent activity from the 12th-14th centuries.The ditches may have served to divide burgage plots extending back at right angles from the medieval street frontage. The other features may be evidence of backplot activities.There is an apparent hiatus in activity in the 15th century; backplot activity appears to have resumed in the 16th-18th century.
