Medieval settlement 160m south and 240m south west of Sandford Farm is a dispersed settlement site of medieval date located in Somerset. The site comprises two discrete occupation areas identified through archaeological survey and fieldwork, positioned at measured distances from the farm itself. The settlement represents typical medieval rural settlement patterns characteristic of the Somerset landscape, where communities established themselves across the wider agricultural hinterland rather than in concentrated nucleated villages. The precise nature of the structures and extent of occupation at each location would require further archaeological investigation to establish the full chronological range and functional character of the settlement during the medieval period.
