Abstract:		 Previous research had indicated that the project traversed an area of considerable archaeological activity dating from the prehistoric to the modern periods. In particular an Early Bronze Age saucer barrow was situated close to the route of the scheme, which also passed through a Romano-British roadside settlement. The archaeological investigations revealed a Romano-British enclosure ditch that had been infilled during the medieval period, long after it had been abandoned. This ditch was in an area of previously identified cropmarks, which were now thought to have been of Romano-British in date. A scatter of Roman pottery was observed in the same area. On the opposite side of the river, a medieval buried soil was identified, which may have been produced by ridge and furrow agriculture. This was within an extant enclosure, part of a group of earthworks believed to have dated to the medieval period. At Priory Farm, undated features were exposed which may have been related to the medieval priory, or its construction. Modern features and deposits were also recorded. Finds of pottery and ceramic building materials were recovered from the scheme. [Au(abr)]
