Work occurred on Greatworth Well, Lower Greatworth, Thorpe Mandeville in Northamptonshire, from July 2023 and April 2024. Two deposits were identified within the well. The lower deposit was a wet silty clay, with stone inclusions, this deposit likely represented infilling of the well during and after its use. Overlying this deposit was fill. This was a deposit mostly formed of large loose stones, with some wet silty clay. A skeleton was discovered in the bottom section of this deposit.
