Notes about this historic site
1 A flat-based pit was recorded during strip, map and sample excavation at Middleton, measuring 2.7m by 2.65m, with three stakeholes within this pit. It was interpreted as a sunken-featured building of likely Anglo-Saxon date, although there was no pottery of this date recorded in association with it. Medieval pottery found within the feature was considered to be intrusive. The feature was probably associated with north-south and east-west aligned boundary ditches, a number of scattered post-holes and two pits.
