Description
A trial trench evaluation was carried out at the above site in advance of a proposal to erect an extension to the existing property, construct new access and change of use of land to care home garden. The site appeared to have seen some terracing on its western edge, possibly due to the construction of a tennis court some time prior to the current works. However, hill wash deposits downslope and further to the east indicate the possibility for surviving archaeology that has been well protected from field cultivation. Two features were encountered, one a dubious linear feature and the other an undated ditch.
