Description

A trenched evaluation was undertaken to assess the archaeological potential of this site. A total of five trenches were excavated measuring between 20m and 42m. The depth of the topsoil measured from 270mm and 330mm across the site. No features of archaeological interest were observed below the present topsoil. No finds of archaeological significance were recovered. Although the site appears to have no evidence for past activity, it has undergone a certain amount of truncation which could have destroyed shallow archaeological deposits and features (S1).
