In December 2017, Cotswold Archaeology carried out an archaeological evaluation of land off Newton Road, North Petherton, Somerset. A total of 18 trenches was excavated within the site.
The evaluation identified a series of ditches, pits and postholes across the site. A possible prehistoric ring ditch was recorded in the south-eastern part of the site, and an area of intensive late prehistoric/Roman activity was recorded in the north-western part of the site. The evaluation also recorded a broad scattering of post-medieval/modern and undated ditches.
