Reference Name MLI80559

Name:
St Andrew's churchyard, Ewerby

Summary:
St Andrew's churchyard, Ewerby

Location:
EWERBY AND EVEDON, NORTH KESTEVEN, LINCOLNSHIRE

Description:
PRN 61120
The churchyard around St Andrew's church contains a scheduled cross (see 60394). During a watching brief on land adjacent to 50 Main Street (TF 121 472) a medieval ditch and gully were revealed. The ditch contained thirteenth-fourteenth century Potterhanworth ware, which coincides with the rebuilding of the church. It is thought that this ditch demarced the boundary of the churchyard at that time. A later ditch dating to the sixteenth-seventeenth century was also identified which may indicate a change in the boundary. A sixteenth-seventeenth century pit was also revealed. {1}{2}
