An Archaeological Recording Brief at Place Farm, Kirtling Towers, Kirtling

Archaeological monitoring was carried out during excavation of foundation trenches for the redevelopment of a farm building adjacent to the moated site of the Kirtling Towers. The site lies immediately outside this Scheduled Ancient Monument and is therefore of archaeological importance. Modern deposition to level the area within and around the barn was encountered to a depth of 0.6m. A surface, probably from an earlier building was identified and recorded next to the existing barn, however no further archaeological features were revealed.
