Abstract:		 An archaeological desk-based assessment was undertaken which related to an area of 3.3 ha. The study revealed probable later prehistoric settlement archaeology with related field systems, immediately adjacent on both the east and west sides of the sports field. A Roman road traversed the site, with potentially a further important Roman route way immediately to the east. Roman pottery finds on the field itself and the extension of a sub circular enclosure of probable Iron Age date into the western fringes of the field, all provided indication of significant known and potential archaeology within the site. With little or no later disturbance from construction or landscaping, any such features were likely to have been well preserved. [Au(abr)]
