Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation was undertaken in advance of the proposed development. A single trench was excavated across the site, which revealed buried deposits within a large ditch, presumed to be the Roman Car Dyke canal. The deposits were encountered at a depth of c1m extending to at least 3.5m below modern ground level and were sealed by later post-medieval layers. The post-medieval deposits may have related to the 17th century when the dyke was re-cut for use as a drain or a catch water, and these were sealed by modern infill. The evaluation appeared to confirm that the presumed route of the Car Dyke canal did not follow the route of the A10 and Beech Ditch at this point, however, medieval or post-medieval activity may have removed Roman deposits at this point.
