Abstract:		 Nine trial trenches were excavated in response to two planning applications. Several archaeological sites and findspots were located in the vicinity of the site and it was anticipated that the area might fall within a zone of Late Saxon and medieval settlement. Natural silts indicated that the site once lay within an intertidal zone, probably prior/during the Roman period. An undated, possibly Saxon/medieval pit filled with charred wheat and barley was identified. A large livestock pond and a field boundary, possibly marked by a fence, represented the post-medieval and modern periods. A quantity of iron smithing slag, found in the fill of the pond, suggested metal processing activity nearby. The range of artefacts recovered from both features indicated use from the 17th to late 19th century and this was supported by cartographic evidence, which showed the existence of former field boundaries, a smithy and a probable farm complex in and in the vicinity of the site.
