Site Event/Activity record ECH3557 - Report on an Archaeological Watching Brief at St Chad's Church Moated Site, Wybunbury, Cheshire

An archaeological watching brief was undertaken in 1993 during water pipe-laying operations in the vicinity of a moated site close to St Chad's Church, Wybunbury. Only a limited area of the southern corner of the moated site was affected. Archaeological features identified comprised a banks of upcast material lying outside the moat and resulting from its excavation and subsequent clearing. Also an outlet channel through the banks was identified, along with a possible earlier soil horizon and later flood deposits. (1)
