The narrow pipe trench excavated at this location (Trench 1) revealed no archaeologically-significant features or deposits.
An initial metal-detector survey and a scan of the spoil from the excavated trench recovered only fragments of late 20th-century material. None of the objects recovered were potentially associated with the use of the World War Two airfield (NHER 9235).
