Summary : Building foundations, possibly associated with the priory (NZ 19 NW 1) |
More information : [Name NZ 1207 9860] Ancient Foundations [O.E] (1) A paved way from the bridge (NZ 19 NW 2) appears to have entered the camp (NZ 19 NW 7) and there are traces of buildings. There were farm buildings there within the memory of the late MR. Leightom. The bridge and road are probably contemporary with the Priory (NZ 19 NW 1) (2) [NZ 1195 9857 & NZ 1199 9865] Ancient Foundation [O.E] [Twice] [Annotation of the northern feature refers to a small L-shaped platform while that to the south refers to a rectangular pecked outline measuring 11.0m x 6.0m] (3) Both sides occur on a natural shelf on the steep slopes above the Coquet. The area is very overgrown and no trace of any building foundations could be seen. It seems possible that these foundations, fairly close to the bridge and old track [NZ 19 NW 10] may have been of buildings associated with the Priory. (4)
