Abstract:		 Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Parsons Brinckerhoff acting on behalf of Devon County Council, to undertake an archaeological evaluation at the Exeter Science Park situated on the eastern outskirts of Exeter at the junction of the M5 and the A30, centred on NGR SX 97500 93340. Outline planning permission for the Exeter Science Park was granted in March 2010 and was conditional upon a programme of archaeological work being undertaken to inform a later detailed planning application. A geophysical survey has been undertaken within the Site and identified a number of anomalies that may be of archaeological origin. In addition a metal detector survey was also carried out which recovered a range of metal objects including coins, tokens, personal items and fixtures and fittings. On the basis of the results of these surveys, the County Archaeologist at Devon County Council required an archaeological trial trench evaluation to 'ground truth' the results of the earlier surveys. Four archaeological evaluation trenches were machine excavated in Areas 1 and 2. Three field ditches were recorded in Area 1, two or which corresponded with anomalies recorded during the geophysical survey in Trench 2 and with field boundaries recorded on the 1837-9 Tithe Map. A small undated ditch was recorded within Trench 1. The archaeological features confirm a continuation of the broad pattern of post-medieval field systems recorded during the evaluation in 2008 and broadly accords with the 19th century cartographic evidence for the site.
