Abstract:		 From the 20th to 22nd February 2018, Britannia Archaeology Ltd (BA) undertook a trial trench evaluation on behalf of Oxbury Chartered Surveyors Ltd in advance of a residential development. The evaluation identified a possible phase of Late Iron Age/Roman activity in the form of the droveway that runs east to west across the south side of the site. Although the excavated sections did not contain any dating evidence, a trackway was found in the field adjacent to the site during excavations. This trackway ran north from an area of known Late Iron Age and Roman settlement to the South. The evaluation also identified a likely phase of Roman agricultural activity represented by the three linear features which given their similar widths and depths and that they are relatively evenly spaced are likely to be Roman lazy beds. The excavation in the fields adjacent to the site revealed similar features which were interpreted as Roman lazy beds and it is reasonable to think they would continue into this area. Unfortunately no dating evidence was found in these features. The evaluation revealed activity possibly dating to the Late Iron Age/Roman period in the form of a trackway and probable later Roman agricultural activity represented by lazy beds. Similar features were identified in the adjacent fields and these are likely continuations. Despite the moderate potential for medieval and post-medieval activity, no features from this period were encountered and the only evidence of later activity were levelling layers for the modern and extant Manège.
