Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	The site was subject to archaeological trial trenching which confirmed the existence of remains of the farm and associated field boundaries. The pottery and other artefacts retrieved all fell into a very broad date range (1500-1900) or were potentially residual, making it impossible to filter out any features that might have dated from the earlier farm complex. The lack of structural and artefactual remains also made it very difficult to assign any form or function to the farm buildings based purely on archaeological evidence. The excavation was successful in matching the revealed building foundations and a large number of structural postholes with maps dating to the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries. The majority of bricks that were sampled during the investigations were 18th century in date, suggesting that the building material from the early farm complex was re-used when the farm was remodelled in the mid 19th century. They also provide the only potential physical evidence of the earlier farm.
