Description

{1} The site was recorded in three phases: the southernmost part (Cell 3) was stripped and recorded in 2009 whilst the northernmost part (Cell 4) was stripped and recorded in 2015. In addition, a watching brief was undertaken in 2014 during the excavation of a small number of geotechnical pits. An archaeological presence at Cell 3 was only established after stripping had commenced with toothed buckets, and which had impacted on the archaeological levels.
