Abstract:		 An initial watching brief was carried out during the UXO survey. This was followed by a topsoil strip along the route of the proposed road. From the results of the road strip it was decided to excavate eight test pits across the site area. All monitored excavation was undertaken by use of a mechanical excavator equipped with a toothless grading bucket, whilst under constant archaeological observation. Where potential archaeological features or deposits were present, they were manually investigated and, if necessary, recorded in accordance with the WSI. Spoil tips were then scanned for unstratified finds. The stratigraphy across the monitored areas and test pits indicated that the entire area had previously been stripped down to the natural clays, which would have truncated or removed any potential archaeological evidence. Across the majority of the site, the natural deposits were then sealed by a layer of imported hardcore, which was in turn sealed by imported topsoil. However, in Test pits 3, 6 and 8 the natural substrates were directly sealed by topsoil. No archaeological finds, features or deposits were present within any of the monitored areas. Modern pottery, glass and iron objects were identified, noted and then discarded.
