Abstract/Summary
An archaeological evaluation of land at Frome Whitfield was carried out during August 1992 in advance of the proposed construction of a cess pit required for the use of the land as a scout activity and camp site. The area lies adjacent to the site of the Frome Whitfield deserted medieval village and church of St Nicholas. The work comprised the excavation of two 1m² trial pits. Both contained small quantities of Medieval and post-medieval pottery, possibly ranging in date from the 12th to 19th century. Trial pit 2 revealed a single linear feature, probably a ditch, containing medieval pottery.
