Abstract:		 An evaluation was carried out at the proposed site of a housing development. Roman and post-medieval metalled surfaces had been recorded in the vicinity of the site, whilst excavations in the area had revealed multi-period occupation evidence, consisting of Roman masonry buildings, Saxon huts and Civil War defensive ditches. During the evaluation, a layer containing exclusively Roman tile and pottery was found to seal the natural subsoil. A boundary ditch, a gully, a further ditch and two pits thought to be of Roman date were recorded, and a ditch containing Roman artefacts and a large quantity of early Saxon pottery was revealed. It was recommended that the Roman and Saxon deposits at the site should be preserved in situ where possible, and excavated where preservation was impossible, and that a watching brief should be carried out during groundworks.
