Abstract/Summary

The evaluation revealed one cluster of archaeological features along with a few isolated ditches. The cluster was recorded in the north of the site and the features took the form of ditches, gullies and one posthole. Some of these features correspond to anomalies identified during a previous geophysical survey. A small assemblage of prehistoric pottery was recovered. Isolated ditches in trenches 16 and 18 also correspond to results from this geophysical survey. One trench (2) contained features of possible archaeological interest not recorded by the geophysical survey in the form of two undated gullies.
