Abstract:		 This was a targeted evaluation to examine geophysical and aerial photographic anomalies. The trenching confirmed the majority of the cropmark anomalies and a proportion of the geophysical anomalies as being of archaeological origin. Most of the features examined were dated to the Roman period and appear to represent an enclosure complex though no discrete Roman features were recorded. A trench across a circular cropmark confirmed its presence but produced only a few struck flints as dating evidence. One of the cropmark ditches was of post-medieval date. A number of the features were of post-medieval date and possibly of early medieval date.Two extra trenches were intended to target an area of a putative moated site now surviving only as an L-shaped ditch. These two trenches contained several cut features but all contained material such as coal/clinker, brick/tile or wood and are thought to be of fairly modern date. No deposits were identified that could be interpreted as a moat nor any artefacts unambiguously of medieval date. A few sherds of earlier prehistoric pottery and struck flints were also recorded.
