Abstract:		 The investigation comprised a ‘SMR’ portion along a section of the pipeline at the south-west extent of the route and the monitoring of topsoil removal within the remaining easement width. The excavation of the pipe trench was also monitored, in areas where it was considered appropriate to conduct this additional stage of monitoring. Where the initial strip was not sufficiently deep to fully expose the natural substrate (and observe potential archaeological deposits), the excavation of the subsequent pipe trench was also partially monitored. The pipe was laid in a trench with a depth of about 1.6m. In addition, direction drilling pits (launch / receptor) were initiated at a number of locations along the route of the pipeline. The programme of archaeological mitigation has demonstrated that a limited number of archaeological features and deposits survive along the route of the scheme, with a concentration of deposits broadly to the southwest. A small number of archaeological features were recorded during the strip, map and record portion of the investigation. Generally, these features are thought to be modern in origin and may denote agricultural activity or land division and do not provide any evidence for intensive activity, such as settlement, along the route of the scheme.
