The archaeological work was commissioned by CgMs Consulting on behalf of Charles Church Developments Ltd. in response to a planning condition attached to residential development. The aim of the work was to characterise the archaeological potential of the site. The evaluation identified a single shallow north-east to southwest running ditch which contained no finds. A single tree throw was also identified, which contained pottery and bone of a medieval date.
