Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation comprised the excavation and recording of three trenches within a proposed development area. The evaluation identified a number of archaeologically significant features in the form of pits, a linear and several uncharacterised features. The earliest dated phase of activity was in the form of a possible pit/linear terminus which contained multiple sherds of Medieval pottery. The presence of this activity is consistent with other data recorded on the HER, which suggests Medieval agricultural or backland activity. Evidence for Post-medieval activity was present in Trench 3 in the form of a linear. The location of this find near the eastern boundary of the site is consistent with the suggestion in the desk-based assessment that agricultural and backland activity may be present in this area. A total of three features, [108], [211] and [213], were all filled with a similar mortarlike material, which may be footings/activities associated with the agricultural building dating between 1882 and 1925 or the recreation ground structure present between 1980 and 2006. No artefactual evidence was present within any of the fills associated with these features. However, as all the features cut through the subsoil, a Post-medieval/Modern date is suggested for this activity. The three remaining features, [106], [205] and [209] are undated, although pits [106] and [209] were both sealed by subsoil, which would suggest some degree of antiquity for these features. The evaluation therefore identified the presence of probable agricultural or backland activity dating from at least the Medieval period onwards.
