Abstract:		 An archaeological trench evaluation was undertaken out by AC archaeology during January 2020 on land at 2 Well Cottages, Buckfastleigh, Devon. Investigations comprised the machine excavation of three trenches totaling 25m in length, with each trench 1.2m wide. The site is located to the rear of 2 Well Cottages within an area that is currently occupied by a polytunnel, vegetable garden, lawn and pond. The main interest in the site was its proximity to a possible triple-ditched squared enclosure that had been interpreted from cropmarks shown on an aerial photograph. This lies adjacent to the site and potentially represents activity of Iron Age to Romano-British date. Approximately half of its likely full extent is visible on the aerial photograph and its remaining projected portion had the potential to continue partially into the current site. The results from the trial trenching were largely negative, with no evidence for a continuation of the enclosure extending into the site. A single linear feature likely to represent part of a former modern farm track was the only feature exposed.
