Abstract:		 John Moore Heritage Services carried an archaeological watching brief over four days between the 2nd and 11th October 2013. A number of small-scale landscaping projects were undertaken including the removal and reinstatement of a yew hedge, the creation of a new access drive and the backfilling of an old swimming pool. Deeper excavations were required for the new garage, however, and were considered to be much more likely to impact upon buried archaeological remains. During the superficial landscaping operations no archaeological deposits were observed. In the centre of the land plot, an area of red sand natural geology was located at around 0.76m when a trench, designed to receive the reinstated yew hedge, was excavated by mechanical digger. At 8m further to the south, an archaeological occupation layer (or spread) was located during the mechanical excavation of the garage footings which contained pottery, animal bone and metalworking slag. This layer in turn sealed the underlying sand and gravel geology - which illustrated the variations inherent in the sand and gravel beds over a relatively small area, varying from red sand with pebbles to a mid-yellow sand and gravel mix.
