Abstract:		 The desk-based archaeological assessment has shown that the area was located close to an Anglo-Saxon cemetery, which may have extended into the area, and that of a Roman villa. Prehistoric finds had also been found in the vicinity. The proposed development area therefore had the potential for containing archaeological remains of Anglo-Saxon, Roman and prehistoric dates. Map and site visit evidence confirmed the presence of mostly insubstantial 19th and 20th century agricultural outbuildings. Any archaeological remains present, therefore, may be well have been preserved in most of the area. [Au(abr)]
