Abstract:		 An evaluation and desk-based assessment was undertaken in order to better understand the past landscape within which the site is located. The trial excavation stage of the evaluation was undertaken in October 2004. Three trenches were excavated. Despite the proximity of the modern course of Ermine Street, and the possibility that the ancient route could have crossed the site, no traces were found of the Roman road, or any roadside settlement. Further investigation was undertaken. This evaluation focused on the central area of a site excluded from an earlier investigation. The investigation indicated that disturbance associated with the erection of the standing buildings was minimal, with the pre-existing soil profile having been buried beneath deposits associated with construction of the buildings. The only possible archaeological feature was identified in this area and may be the southern edge of a post-medieval quarry pit. The evaluation of the central area revealed that no features earlier that the post-medieval period were present. As construction of the standing buildings had resulted in minimal disturbance, the results of the evaluation provide a reliable indication of the likely survival of archaeological remains.
