Abstract: |
The site (Fig. 1) lies on the edge of the historic core of Sidford, immediately to the northwest of the parish church of St Peter's. The development site is situated to the rear of possible medieval buildings in an area that would have formerly contained orchards and gardens. Prehistoric and Saxo-Norman activity has been recorded in the vicinity, while the A3052 lies on or near to the line of a possible Roman road. The site area was an irregular shape and measured approximately 4.8ha. A watching brief was maintained during groundworks associated with the construction of the access road and building plots at the north and north-east end of the site. No features, deposits or dating evidence were found to indicate archaeological activity within the area of the development. |
