Excavation in advance of a planning application for the construction of a new vicarage in existing vicarage garden revealed a north-south limestone wall, 45 centimetres wide. Founded on subsoil. Bonded with light brown clay with lime, charcoal and coal flecks. Small ditch 25 centimetres wide on south-west side. Both ran for 3.7 metres from south-east end of trench. Aligned with a break in garden wall to the south. Probably foundation of a 19-20th century building lying on south-western side of vicarage courtyard (see historic Ordnance Survey maps 1:2500, 1906). Gone by 1952 maps.
