Abstract:		 A final phase of investigations on the site of a new supermarket was undertaken. Excavation of a gravel 'island' and observations in the area of the former gravel terrace in the south of the site confirmed the considerable and deep modern disturbance throughout the area. This corroborated the results of the evaluation and confirmed the very low probability of any surviving remains associated with the Roman cemetery recorded in the 19th century within the development area. Test-pitting combined with watching brief observations recorded a sequence of deposits, including peat, tufa and alluvium corresponding to those recorded during evaluation. Palaeo-environmental sampling identified that pollen was well-preserved in the peat and preliminary analysis suggested that the peat had formed during the Early Mesolithic period, although no artefactual evidence was recovered to indicate human activity within this period within the site area or vicinity.
