Abstract:		 Thirteen trial trenches were excavated within a previously identified long cist cemetery in order to determine how much damage had been done to the cemetery and possible enclosing ditch during ground breaking activities associated with the excavation of a drainage trench and foundations for a pumping station. The cut for the foundation trench of the pumping station was identified in Trench 6 and, although the western edge of the foundation trench could not be located due to on site constraints, it can be assumed that the dimensions of the foundation trench were similar all around the pumping station footprint and that the foundation trench will have removed any archaeological remains from within this area. Long cists and cut graves were recorded in Trenches 4-8 and 10 within the central part of the evaluation area and preservation has been shown to be good, with capstones often remaining in situ. In combination with the evaluation results from 2003 and 2005, the likely extent of the known cemetery can be plotted. It appears that approximately 60% of the likely extent of the cemetery still survives in situ, despite the unauthorised excavation. The most densely occupied part of the cemetery, which is in and around Trench 4, has survived.
