Abstract:
A desk-based assessment and evaluation was undertaken on a green field site prior to development. The desk-based assessment confirmed that no previously known sites lie within the development site. Cartographic sources indicate that a building and enclosure existed within the development site. The building appeared to have been constructed between 1866 and 1901 with the enclosure being added between 1925 and 1937. Neither are depicted by 1972. Eight evaluation trenches amounting to 390m2 (just over 5% of the area) were excavated within the development area. A deposit of building rubble and debris recorded appears to be the remains of the structure recorded on the historic maps. No structural remains were present and the deposit suggests the demolished structure has been removed. The finds suggest a 19th-20th century date. A series of primarily shallow ditches were recorded across the development site. The ditches ranged in width from 0.6m to 1.6m, and in depth from 0.1m to 0.35m, with ditch 801 attaining a depth of 0.65m. Differences in the fills, alignments and profiles suggest that more than one phase of digging is represented. Some of these ditches were parallel to clay pipe field drains, suggesting that they may relate to an earlier phase of field drainage, and some were cut by field drains suggesting that they at least pre-date the mid-20th century. It is possible that these ditches relate to post-medieval or recent agricultural activities. Few finds were recovered from these ditches; pottery of medieval date came from ditch 303 (fill 304) and pottery of 19th/20th century date came from ditch 401 (fill 402). Ditches 104 and 201 in Trenches 1 and 2 conform in location to the enclosure recorded on 20th century maps. No finds were recovered and the ditch appears to have naturally filled in. A single isolated pit (601) containing coal-shale is likely to be modern in origin.
