Description
Four test pits were opened, two of which encountered features significant enough to warrant further investigation.
Archaeological monitoring during the grubbing out of the foundations was also required to record any features that were present within the confines of the extant house foundations.
The test pits were located within the areas of the proposed dwellings and their associated works around the then extant residential building within the sites bounds (Fig. 1). Test Pit 1 (3.00m x 3.00m) was located within the north-west bounds of the site, with Test Pit 2 (3.00m x 3.00m) in the opposing north east corner of the site. Test pits 3 and 4 were located to the south of the extant dwelling on site, and were amalgamated into a single, small excavation area (measuring approx. 10.00m x 8.00m) in order to expose archaeological deposits present within their bounds.
