Abstract:		 An evaluation was carried out along the proposed route of a bypass, which passed through Scheduled Ancient Monument no. 413, a multi-period cemetery, settlement and ceremonial complex. The monument incorporated features dating from the Neolithic to the Anglo-Saxon period, some of which were visible as cropmarks. A magnetometer survey along the proposed road corridor recorded a number of anomalies, whilst fieldwalking recorded a small concentration of worked flint and two concentrations of Romano-British and medieval pottery. Trial trenches were positioned to test cropmark, geophysical and fieldwalking evidence. Features containing Iron Age pottery, and Middle-Late Iron Age settlement boundaries in the form of a penannular ditch and rectilinear ditches, were recorded. Many of the features were overlain by medieval plough furrows and headland deposits, and it was noted that medieval and modern ploughing had resulted in the loss of surfaces contemporary with the Iron Age occupation.
