Full Description

Ditch, near The Glebe, Church Street, Alfreton, of possible medieval or post medieval date. During an evaluation carried out in 2022, a section of a large ditch, 4m wide, oriented east - west, was recorded. It was covered by later 19th century levelling layers, and pre dated the construction of The Glebe. The only find was a single piece of abraded ceramic building material, of possible medieval or post medieval date. Charcoal and coal fragments were also reported. Elsewhere on the site, not within the ditch, 18th and 19th century pottery was recovered from the levelling deposits that sealed it. (1)
