Abstract:		 Historical mapping indicates that the boundaries present within the survey area have existed since at least the end of the 19th century. The site inspection revealed two earthworks, which conrespond to features found in the survey, but no artefactual material was noted. The geophysical survey identified twenty-six groups of probable or possible anomalies that relate to archaeological activity with some anomalies that relate to previous agricultural activity within the survey area. The features range in significance with the truncated remains of an ovoid enclosure (a ploughed out long barrow?), removed field boundaries as well as a historic footpath, which may have run along a hollow-way. The evaluation largely validated the geophysical survey results, equating archaeological and geological features to geophysical anomalies with some additional features being identified. It is probable that areas devoid of geophysical anomalies do not contain significant archaeological features or deposits. The evaluation revealed ditches probably associated with drainage, aspects of a footpath associated with an extant earthwork of a trackway, parts of two demolished walls and the ditch of an Iron Age/Romano-British enclosure. The enclosure in the south-west corner of Field 2 may be associated with a wider Iron Age landscape: Holbury and Oldaport Hillforts are within approximately1km and 1.6km east of the site. The Iron Age/Romano-British enclosure across the south-west half of Field 2 and undated features within the north-east end of Trench 6 and the north-west end of Trench 7 may be subject to further archaeological works. Essentially, areas of planned development south of a line drawn between the north-east and north-west ends of Trenches 6 and 7, respectively, may yield further archaeological deposits and/or features.
