Abstract:		 Fifteen evaluation trenches were excavated, thirteen measuring 50m x 1.6m and one measuring 25 x 1.6m. Trenches 1 to 5 and trench 7 revealed features of archaeological significance. Trenches 1 to 5 revealed furrows matching the pattern of parallel linear anomalies identified by the geophysical survey. Trenches 3, 5 and 7 revealed also linears (F.3003, F.5004, F. 7003, F.7005) that match the location of the anomalies identified by the geophysical survey and are interpreted as the field boundary ditches present on the 1858 to 2002 OS maps. Trench 6 and trenches 8 to 15 were revealed to be archaeologically sterile aside from a large modern waste pit and water pipe at the eastern extent of trench 12. The evaluation revealed very few features of archaeological significance and as suggested by the geophysical survey the parallel linear anomalies and associated perpendicular linear features were furrows and field boundaries indicative of agricultural land usage. Although no finds were recovered from either the furrows or the ditches, the presence of the field boundary ditches on the 1858 OS map could suggest a late medieval or post-medieval date for the identified features.
