{1} Evaluation comprising 45 trenches. There were no archaeological features across much of the site, although a hollow-way dated by a small quantity of late Iron Age pottery and eight linear ditches that appeared to form a field or enclosure system were discovered in the central and eastern part of the western field. Five undated pits were also found in this area.
