Description

An evaluation, in the form of trial trenching, was undertaken on circa 1.3ha of land prior to residential development, in order to assess the archaeological significance of the site and to inform future planning decisions. Six trenches were placed to investigate anomalies identified by a previous geophysical survey. Trenches 1 and 4 measured 10m by 1.6m, Trench 2 measured 25m by 1.6m, Trenches 3 and 5 measured 15m by 1.6m, and Trench 6 measured 20m by 1.6m. {1}
