Abstract:		 The 1.17ha site is occupied by later 19th and early 20th century listed standing buildings along with other associated buildings, which are shown on historic mapping. Earlier maps indicate the site was agricultural in use, with the nearby railway line and associated works intruding into the site area. The eastern part of the site, now unoccupied, was more recently utilised as a car salvage area. The evaluation revealed the presence of buried archaeological remains in three of the eight trenches investigated. The recorded remains survived below a variable thickness of c.0.38-0.85m of overburden formed of made ground deposits. All of the trenches showed evidence of modern disturbance cut into the natural and below overburden deposits. A single flint flake was found representing the Mesolithic or Early Neolithic period. This was found within a pit, though may be residual. Other pits and gullies were located in the area and were all undated. There were no other remains pre-dating the post-medieval period. Post-medieval remains were found in the form of masonry. These remains likely form the western boundary of a structure visible in historic mapping, of which the eastern side is in situ in the form of corrugated iron sheds. Brick rubble to the west of this structure, could represent the remains of this structure.
