Description
Forty-two evaluation trenches were excavated using a tracked 360° mechanical excavator fitted with a 2.1m-wide ditching bucket. The trenches were generally 30m in length. The trial trenching extended into the southwest corner of the adjacent field, intended as the site of a SUDS basin to serve the proposed housing development. Four trenches could not be excavated.
