Abstract:		 An archaeological watching brief was carried out during initial drainage and road construction works and subsequently after large-scale soil stripping and excavation of house foundations. Following the first phase of work, principally in the west of the site, and in the absence of any significant finds or features being observed, it was agreed that only works in the east required monitoring. Some large areas were subsequently observed shortly after they had been stripped of topsoil and again no significant archaeology was apparent. A small number of house foundations were also monitored. Given ongoing site constraints, it was agreed that trial trenches would be excavated where possible in areas which had yet to be monitored. Three trenches were excavated. As no archaeological remains were present within these evaluation trenches, the rest of the development was allowed to proceed without any further archaeological monitoring. Artefactual evidence was sparse and was restricted to a single late Post-medieval/Modern pottery sherd and a few small fragments of undiagnostic CBM, which were present within the subsoil near the western edge of the site. With the exception of three land drains within the northeastern area of the site. No further finds, features or deposits of archaeological origin were present within any of the monitored areas.
