Abstract:		 Archaeology Warwickshire was commissioned to undertake an archaeological evaluation which comprised ten trial trenches opened by a 6 tonne 360° excavator fitted with a 1.5m wide toothless ditching bucket. The trenches were of varying lengths between 10.6m and 40.38m. They were generally located in the positions specified in the WSI although trenches 1, 3 and 10 were repositioned due to mature tree lines and trenches 5, 6 and 8 were altered in length due to modern services. Topsoil and other plough soils were removed under the supervision of an experienced archaeologist until either the top of archaeological remains or geological natural was reached. The work was carried out in accordance with the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists Standard and guidance for field evaluation (2014) and the approved WSI. The evaluation identified the remains of a probable historic field boundary related to the remnants of a ridge and furrow system. Since the furrows are only present north of the hedgerow, consequently respecting it as a border, it probably marks a former agricultural boundary for the open field system. This is partially corroborated insofar as only the present E-W southern field boundary is visible on all historic O.S map editions. There is no boundary depicted on the earliest enclosure map from 1812 which confirms that the hedgerow predates 1812. A small modern pit of unknown function was identified. Modern disturbance and a service trench were recorded across the centre of the application area. This part is characterised by shallow horizons and disturbed soils.
