Full Description
April 2012. Trial Trenching.
Evaluation of proposed development site. Contexts 400-403.
An archaeological evaluation in 2012 revealed two narrow parallel post medieval ditches thought to be related to land drainage. Post medieval pottery consistent with manuring was also recovered, as well as a background scatter of late Bronze Age flints which indicated activity within the general location during the late Bronze Age, rather than an established site at this location.
