Abstract:		 This report presents the results of an archaeological evaluation carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) on land on Belle Hill, Kingsbridge, Devon. The evaluation targeted the geophysical anomalies identified by a survey carried out by SWARCH in 2016. The archaeological evaluation largely validates the results of the geophysical survey (Bampton 2016). It confirmed the presence of a rectangular medieval enclosure and undated ditches probably associated with this, or a later phase of medieval or post-medieval activity. The survival of features, particularly where the topsoil was shallow and the underlying geology was solid rock, was shallow and ploughing was evident across most of the site. It is unlikely any shallow features would survive across the site. It would be of interest to know if- and how far the medieval enclosure extends to the north and the east of the site. Further work on the site is unlikely to yield poignant results, although further work on the surrounding area, would be of value and potentially provide more conclusive evidence as to the nature of the medieval enclosure.
