Abstract:		 Evaluation identified extensive archaeological deposits across the study area; these included ditches, gullies, pits/cut features and postholes, as well as a burnt deposit, which was possibly related to industrial activity. A small assemblage of struck lithics indicated that the earliest on-site activity probably dated to the Mesolithic, although no features were demonstrably datable to this period. Limited evidence for Roman activity was present in the form of two residual pottery sherds and a piece of tegula. The pottery assemblage was dominated by late Saxon and early Medieval wares. The pottery was generally unabraded and represents good dating evidence for on-site activity. The relatively high density of stratified features and deposits present within the trenches suggested fairly intensive settlement; the earliest phases of which may date to the later Saxon period. The lack of later Medieval wares suggested that the Medieval settlement focus shifted after the 13th Century. A small number of features associated with Post-medieval/Modern material represent evidence for later activity.
