Abstract:		 The fieldwork was undertaken in two phases. Between 12th and 25th of January 2011 PCA undertook an evaluation at the site comprising four trenches. Immediately after this work two trenches, which contained archaeological remains of interest, were enlarged to allow targeted mitigation work. Finally, intermittently between 3rd and 15th of March 2011, PCA maintained a watching brief during the excavation of new foundations for the proposed development. The evaluation revealed that Trench 1, in the NE corner of the site, had been severely truncated in the 20th century to the level of the natural gravels. In Trenches 2, 3 and 4, however, a series of postholes, pits and linears were observed. Because of the concentration and possible alignment of the postholes Trenches 2 and 3 were enlarged. The Trench 2 extension revealed more of a post-medieval linear feature and one posthole. In Trench 3 four possible prehistoric pits, two possible medieval pits and a series of post-medieval postholes and three post-medieval linear features were found. The final watching brief yielded further information about features in Trench 2 and also revealed some large modern intrusions. Natural sandy gravels were observed throughout the site.
