Abstract: |
An archaeological desk-based assessment was undertaken as part of a planning application for the residential development of the site. The assessment found that the site lay within a landscape rich in prehistoric activity, including many finds of Palaeolithic, Mesolithic, Neolithic and Bronze Age date and, together with its location on topographically and geologically favourable ground, it was considered that, although parts of the site had been disturbed, the potential for the existence of buried remains of this date was relatively high.
