Digital Archive from an Archaeological Evaluation at Treasbeare Farm, Cranbrook, Exeter, November to December 2021

This collection comprises images, GIS and site records from an archaeological evaluation of land at Treasbeare Farm, Cranbrook, Devon. This work was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in November and December 2021. A total of 43 trenches were excavated within the site. The evaluation recorded a broad scattering of ditches and postholes/pits across the site. The majority of these features were undated, but there were two possible prehistoric enclosures. Part of a probable post-medieval farm building was also recorded; this was sealed by a deposit containing a large quantity of redeposited Roman tile, which apparently originated from a collapsed late 2nd/early 3rd century AD bathhouse or hypocausted building. The location of the hypothesised Roman building from which the ceramic building material was salvaged is unknown; it was presumably close to but outside of the present application site.
