Abstract:		 A watching brief identified a large archaeological deposit to the east of the existing property. This had been disturbed, most likely during construction of the property in the 1980's, however, an undisturbed part was exposed and recorded during the works. This undisturbed area contained Roman pottery dating from the 2nd to 4th centuries and one fragment of tegula roofing tile. Modern disturbance in the form of service cuts and footings for the existing building was present throughout the watched area. Dark grey-blue clay very similar in appearance to the identified archaeological deposit was present within mixed layers overlying Modern services across the site. It is therefore possible that the identified archaeological deposit containing Roman material represents part of a larger, truncated feature. The mixed layers also contained re-deposited natural clay, which suggests that the area around the existing house had been significantly disturbed and possibly stripped, most likely during the construction of the 1980's building, with the stripped material then reused at a later date. This activity, along with the excavation of the original house footings had the potential to truncate any archaeological deposits which may have been present within the study area.
