Abstract:		 Sixteen trenches were opened up by a 360 excavator fitted with a 1.60m wide toothless ditching bucket. The trenches were each 55m long and located in the positions specified in the WSI (Fig 2). Trenches 8 and 16 were extended after consultation with the Planning Archaeologist. This work was carried out in accordance with the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists Standard and guidance for field evaluation (2014). The trial trenching revealed two isolated areas of archaeological activity. A globular bead in turquoise glass of late Iron Age or early Roman date was exposed by the machine. It seemed to be associated with a curvilinear gully which produced two poorly preserved prehistoric pottery sherds. The gully was truncated by an east-west aligned ditch containing fragments of ceramic building material. A large irregular clay-lined pit was exposed in Trench 16. No finds were recovered to determine the date or function of the feature, but its morphology suggests that it may have either held water for stock or have been intended for an industrial process. Evidence of medieval or post-medieval ploughing trends was encountered in nearly all the trenches. It was more visible in the southern field as the ridges survived as earthworks. A service trench and modern disturbance were exposed along the west side of the southern field
