Abstract:		 The main aim of the work was to identify and record any archaeological remains disturbed by development in areas of perceived archaeological potential identified in both consented areas of the site, to collate the records in an archaeological archive and present the significant aspects of the archive in a report for dissemination. An experienced archaeologist was made available for each day of ground disturbance. The work was carried out in accordance with the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists Standards and Guidelines (2014). The areas of ‘potential archaeology’ monitored across both consented development areas (for applications R12/0600 and R14/0217) revealed a similar sequence of modern truncation (scouring) and deposition resulting from demolition and levelling of the site. This seems most likely to have occurred in recent history probably during the construction and demolition phases of the car plant. Localised evidence for extensive concrete foundations or structures was identified at the southern limit of site. These relate to 20th century activity and clearly caused the truncation of the deposit sequence. Whilst sporadic evidence of a possible former ploughsoil was recorded, the vast majority of the areas revealed evidence for modern disturbance or truncation to geological levels. The deposit sequence clearly showed that there had been considerable impact on the survival of any potential archaeological remains across the observed areas. No significant archaeological remains were encountered.
