Abstract:		 Observations during the watching brief showed that the development area has been subject to a high degree of truncation, particularly in the area of the two underground petrol storage tanks, which dated to the 1960s (still in situ at the time of development) and 1970s in the centre and northern areas of the site. Natural yellow clays were encountered in this area at 37.17m aOD. In the southern part of the development area natural yellow clays were found immediately upon removal of tarmac and overburden at 38.18m aOD, while along the eastern part of the footings excavation area, a layer of redeposited natural covered natural clays which occurred at between 37.90m and 37.60m aOD, most probably as a result of landscaping to create a flat area for the petrol station. No structural or depositional evidence was found for either the 19th century houses shown on Maule's 1803 survey or for the Medieval chapel.
