Description

Excavation and monitoring were carried out by Pre-Construct Archaeology between 15 April and 22 May 2014.

The excavation and monitoring were concentrated on Area 1 c.1.42ha rectangular area in the western part of the site. Two additional targeted excavations at Area 2 and 3 are due to take place in the eastern half of the site, in line with the developer's construction programme (S1).
