Small-scale excavation was carried out by D W Williams for HAG around the Golf Club house, supposedly the site from which came the well-known waster jug. Only eight sherds of medieval pottery were found. (183)

Site watching of chancel reflooring by R J Poulton, M G O’Connell and D W Williams revealed no medieval features, but reused probably medieval floor tiles were noted.

Further excavation was carried out by D W Williams for HAG in advance of proposed redevelopment. Just above the natural sand were found a barrel padlock and many sherds of coarse sandy ware cooking pots, associated with carbonised seeds and fish bones. A 12th century date for this pottery and a pit group from the earlier, published, excavation was supported by the discovery nearby of a 12th century French billon denier minted in Angoulême.

Continued excavation by R L Ellaby; the site is now thought to be very late in the Mesolithic.
