Full Description
An archaeological evaluation revealed graves in the north-western corner of the site, a further part of a cemetery previously recorded in 2001. Six possible grave cuts were identified in one trench, and another in a nearby trench. A post-medieval or modern ditch contained a brooch and human bone and had evidently truncated a grave. The graves were not excavated and were preserved in situ. Elsewhere features were present across the site, mostly ditches. Dating evidence was sparse, but pottery sherds suggest at least two were Roman and one was of medieval date (S1)(S2).
