Abstract:		 The archaeological evaluation validated the results of an earlier geophysical survey. It identified two probable medieval ditches and, to some degree clarified the life-cycle of an extant medieval bank that was altered in the post-medieval period; probably the 19th century. The poor state of survival of the probable medieval ditches is indicative of severe truncation by ploughing and, although the earlier geophysics indicates no other probable features across the site apart from land drains (also identified in the evaluation) it is likely that any potential shallow archaeological features or remains would not have survived. The bank appears to have once been a prominent boundary that became incorporated into the field to its south, while its north face/slope remained to define the north field/garden part of Burrough House, which had been terraced and made level. The majority of the bank and north field will be in the rear gardens of proposed houses.
