Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	A watching brief was carried out during excavations in connection with the upgrading of an electricity supply. The scheme pased through an area of archaeological sensitivity, which included the site of a possible Roman shrine which was a SAM. Earlier discoveries at the site had included skeletons and coffins, two buildings, a range of potentially votive metalwork and a large assemblage of pottery. Evidence of Early Iron Age occupation, as well as pottery of Mid-Late Iron Age date, had also been recorded. During the watching brief, a modern field drain fragment and a small amount of Romano-British pottery were recovered from a trench excavated within the scheduled area. A second trench outside the SAM resulted in the collection of a larger sample of pottery and a pierced copper alloy disc. These were recovered from a homogeneous dark earth horizon, which may have represented the fill of a Roman feature of undetermined extent. It was concluded that the watching brief had not identified any remains which had added to the understanding of the site. The exposure of the possible fill of a Roman feature at the base of Red Hill had demonstrated that other in situ remains could have survived in this area. Such remains, if present, would be vulnerable to any future development. [Au(adp)]
