Webb, P., 2016, Archaeological monitoring and recording during replacement of electricity pylons at St. Marys Church, Pilton, Barnstaple, Devon (Report - Watching Brief). SDV359796.
Archaeological monitoring and recording was undertaken at St. Mary’s Church for the diocese of Exeter (the Client) during groundworks associated with the replacement of electricity pylons at St. Marys Church, Pilton, Barnstaple, Devon.
The features identified during the monitoring predominantly relate to the repair of the churchyard walls. The finds suggest that the layers retained behind the churchyard walls are predominantly comprised of 18th and 19th century deposits, with 15th-16th century material mixed in.
