Abstract:		 Archaeological trench evaluation of a proposed development site of approx 50sqm. at Flamberts, Prigg Lane, South Petherton. The evaluation demonstrated the presence across the site of alluvial deposits which, where tested, were found at depths between 1.3m to 2.42m below the ground surface. Compressed organic material (peat) was observed in several locations beneath the alluvial. The evaluation produced no features or evidence of medieval occupation nor any compelling evidence of activity prior to the post-medieval period. Post-medieval activity was represented by topsoil found across the site; this mixed topsoil is probably associated with the domestic and garden use of the area as a house plot from at least the early 20th century. A feature representing a shallow E-W aligned ditch was exposed within trench 1, cutting from the level of the upper horizon of the alluvial clay. It is interpreted as a post-medieval drainage and/or boundary ditch of probable 19th-century date.
