Description
The area was four fields used for hay pasture and one field of overgrown
scrub. Three of the fields contained ponds.
An Archaeological Geophysical Survey was undertaken in December 2014 by
Phase Site Investigations Ltd. And no anomalies of archaeological potential
were identified.
Trial trenching was undertaken across 5.9 hectares in size - 1700m2 of trenching was conducted.
Seventeen Evaluation Trenches were excavated and all were 50m by 2m in
size.
Three trenches contained signs of modern activity, including a drain seen in
Trenches 7 & 9 and a posthole in Trench 8.
No further archaeological work is necessary in respect of this site.
