Site specific methodologies were as follows:
Recording was in accordance with established best practice and the Oxford Archaeology Field Manual. All features and deposits were issued with unique context numbers, and context Digital photos were taken of deposits, trenches and evaluation work in general, and form part of the project archive. Artefactual evidence and Burials can also be found in the associated Evaluation Report (Attfield, 2019).
The evaluation consisted of the excavation of 6 trenches, measuring 50m by 1.8m. Trenches 1, 2, 5 and 6 were devoid of archaeology, whereas trenches 3 and 4 contained a potential ditch terminus, and an east‐west aligned shallow ditch, respectively. No finds were retrieved.
