Abstract:		 There was evidence of prehistoric activity in the immediate area (Langage) and also over a wider area, and consequently there was a strong likelihood of material from this period surviving along the route. The pipeline route passed through fields originally laid out close to medieval settlement sites. Although the land had probably always been used for agricultural purposes, there was the possibility that one or more of the settlement site(s) were once larger than at present, despite there being no direct cartographic or documentary evidence for this. Field No. 1359 (between Leigh and Langage) was named 'Great Crockers Field' in 1840/41 and may have been indicative of former industrial activity. Advance evidence of any pre-medieval occupation, or of an extended early medieval settlement, was only likely to be revealed during construction work, or as a result of geophysical and/or geotechnical investigations undertaken prior to development works. It was thought that archaeological evidence relating to the earlier A38 (on the line of the medieval or earlier route) will have been destroyed or truncated by the dualling of the A38 in the 1970s.
