Full Description
2008. Test-pitting.
Two sherds of Late Saxon pottery were excavated in the lower context of the test pit along with a range of medieval pottery types, including Early Medieval Sandy Ware, Grimston Ware and Late Medieval Ware. Glazed Red Earthenware, Staffordshire Manganese Ware and Victorian pottery were also excavated in the middle contexts of test pit 11.
Much like test pit 10 (NHER 52728), the location of test pit 11 appears to be in the core of the early village. The Late Saxon evidence suggests that from test pit excavations so far, test pit 11 was the eastern limit of Late Saxon activity in Carleton Rode but was in the centre throughout the medieval period.
