Abstract:		 The evaluation has identified the presence of probable Roman features within the site, in the form of a pit and a possible posthole. A sequence of stratigraphically early clay soil layers may also have been of Roman date; although, this remained highly tentative. Evidence for Medieval activity comprised at least two ditches and a fairly substantial probable pit. The ditches almost certainly represented settlement backland boundaries and the pit was most likely to be part of a refuse and/or cess pit and, as such, represented further backland activity. Due to space constraints and the presence of a live gas pipe, the excavated trenches comprised a relatively small sample of the site. The general stratigraphic sequence and soil depths were, however, relatively uniform across the investigated areas. It is therefore likely that other stratified Roman and Medieval remains are present elsewhere within the site. The finds assemblage comprised 25 sherds of Roman pottery, 29 sherds of Medieval pottery, a piece of possible Roman CBM, animal bone and a fragment of Postmedieval ceramic smoking pipe.
