Abstract:		 Geophysical survey and trial trenching were carried out at a site which lay close to a known Roman villa/farmstead and an apparent temple site. Well-defined ridge and furrow had been noted in the central part of the site. During the evaluation, linear field boundary ditches and a wider ditch which was thought to represent the southern boundary of the villa/farmstead complex were recorded. An area of metalling was also revealed. This may have been part of a Roman trackway, but could alternatively have represented the reinforcement of the banks of a ditch crossing. It was concluded that the area was likely to have been used as farmland throughout its history. A watching brief during development works was recommended. [AIP]
