Archaeologists find evidence of a large medieval settlement at a centuries-old manor near Faringdon.
In the latest phase, researchers and volunteers have begun excavating evaluation trenches surrounding the village.
Archaeologist Indie Jago said: "It's really amazing for us, because we did test pitting here last year and we were finding that the medieval stuff was all to the west of where the church is today."We've got the continuing settlement to the west and lots of agricultural activity down to the south near where the manor is today."The dig has been funded by part of a £4.
William Morris, whose fabric designs are still used on hundreds of products from wallpaper to crockery, rented the property from 1871 until his death in 1896.
