| Abstract: |
Of the seven trenches excavated, only two contained archaeological features. Trench 1 contained a narrow north-south aligned ditch, probably a late medieval/post-medieval field boundary, and trench 3/6 contained a single pit likely to be of Late Iron Age/early Roman date. A small number of struck flints recovered indicated prehistoric activity in the vicinity. There was no evidence to conclude that a ditch, which was located to the south of the present site during the excavation of a medieval leper cemetery, continued northwards on the alignment suggested by a subsequent geophysical survey.
