Description

An archaeological evaluation was carried out to assess the impact of a proposed development on potential heritage assets. The evaluation consisted of seventeen trenches measuring in total c.480mlong and between 1.6m and 1.8m wide. This gave a 5% sample of the site. The evaluation showed that topsoil was only present to a maximum depth of 0.4m, sealing the natural geology and features. Linear features, pits and possible post holes dating mostly to the medieval and post medieval period were identified.
