Abstract:		 An archaeological trench evaluation, carried out in support of a future planning application for residential development on land north of the A3052 road, Clyst St Mary, Devon (NGR SX 9781 9104), was undertaken by AC archaeology during December 2012. The site occupies an area of approximately 2.2 hectares over two plots of pasture land. A previous geophysical gradiometer survey of the site indentified a series of linear anomalies, as well as a potential early settlement enclosure. The evaluation comprised the machine-excavation of five trenches totalling 140m in length and each trench 1.8m wide, with these positioned to target some of the geophysical anomalies. A series of linear features dating to the post-medieval period were identified in the western part of the site and there was no evidence for the enclosure recorded during the geophysical survey. It is likely that many of the anomalies recorded during the survey relate to banding of sands and gravels forming the natural subsoil. Early finds recovered comprise a single sherd of Iron Age pottery and a piece of prehistoric worked flint. The pottery sherd was recovered from the exposed surface of a probable natural hollow, while the flint piece was recovered residually in a post-medieval ditch.
