Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	An archaeological trench evaluation, carried out in support of a planning application for residential development on land at Higher Woolbrook, Sidford, Sidmouth was undertaken by AC archaeology. The site is situated on land to the south of Sidford High Street, the alignment of which is thought to represent the Roman coastal road between Charmouth and Exeter. The area also contains a number of previously recorded archaeological sites and monuments dating to the prehistoric period. An earlier geophysical survey of the site by magnetometry identified a number of anomalies which indicate archaeological activity. The evaluation comprised the machine-excavation of 17 trenches totalling 520m in length. Across large parts of the site negative or largely negative results were recorded. In one alluvial layer a single piece of probable Bronze Age pottery was present, while prehistoric worked flint was found in the upper silts of a probable palaeochannel. Several linears were also identiified of medieval date or later.
