Abstract:		 Archaeological monitoring and recording was undertaken by South West Archaeology Limited (SWARCH) during the groundworks ahead of the construction of agricultural buildings. The development site lies in an area of archaeological potential where prehistoric activity in the wider landscape is recorded in the Historic Environment Record. The area was stripped by a machine and three archaeological features recorded; a pit and two linears. The function of the linears was unclear, but they probably boundary features of some sort. The pit was an irregular sub-ovoid feature that was sealed by the topsoil deposits but probably recent in origin. The removal of small sections from three hedgebanks was also monitored and recorded. A small number of finds were recovered, mostly from the topsoil, forming a relatively large collection of medieval pottery, dating to the 12th-14th century. Two lithic flakes (6g) were also recovered, one late chalk-derived flake and one chert flake, possibly late Mesolithic/early Neolithic in date (M. Tingle pers. comm.) One intact glass bottle (marked 'Walter Gregory's Antiferment for Cider') was recovered from the hedgebank (context (111)). This 'antiferment' was produced in Wellington, Somerset, by a Victorian 'animal medicine manufacturer'.
