Two modern postholes and a large modern pit were identified within Trench 3 and an undated ditch in Trench 9 whilst three possible postholes were idneitfied in Trench 8, two of which were undated whilst the third was tentatively dated to the medieval period. Single sherds of medieval and post-medieval pottery were recovered from the topsoil within Trench 8 and a small assemblage of post-medieval ceramic building material (CBM) and animal bone was recovered from the overlying topsoil and colluivium deposits within Trench 1 (s1).
