Abstract:		 40 trial trenches were excavated in order to examine the archaeological potential of the Stage 3 area, and of a narrow access corridor required to link this with Stage 1. The evaluation revealed a limited number of features of archaeological interest, but enabled the identification of three areas where a limited amount of further work was recommended. Area A: It was recommended that a watching brief accompany the removal of overburden material from this area, to enable the courses of ditches 103 and 105 to be traced and to enable further samples of these, and/or any other features revealed here, to be excavated. A watching brief had already been recommended for the soil which remained to be stripped from the Stage 1 area, immediately to the north. Areas B and C: It was recommended that the overburden material be removed from these areas as part of a controlled strip under the direct supervision of an archaeological officer. This would enable features 114, 118 and 124 to be investigated further, the presumed recent ditches to be sampled, and other features revealed to be investigated. Both areas existed upon topographically elevated areas lying between some of the hollows noted above - as such they seemed likely locations for ancient activity, the hollows being prone to flooding. The southern end of Area B was very close to the burnt flint scatter identified by the previous work undertaken in the vicinity, which was a further indicator of ancient activity hereabouts.
