The remains of a stone building were excavated in advance of proposed development (Licence no. 10E0010). A short section of dry-stone wall survived, the footprint mainly defined by a metalled surface (c .6m long). The structure was rectilinear in plan and would have fronted onto the trackway (DU005-071----). A large amount of mid-12th – mid-14th century pottery, a silver penny of Edward I or II (c. 1279-1327 AD), a whetstone, iron objects and a weight were recovered a spread overlying the metalled interior. Associated was a drain on the same orientation and a hearth. A radiocarbon date from charred cereal grain returned a calibrated date of 1280-1410 AD (Long 2010, 34).
