Abstract:		 The c.2.2ha site lies within an area of archaeological interest --a prehistoric barrow cemetery comprising five barrows, one of which lay within the site boundary. Evaluation in 2004 revealed limited evidence of prehistoric, Late Iron Age and Roman activity. In 2010-11, archaeological monitoring of preparatory groundworks revealed no archaeological remains within the area of the current site, except for residual prehistoric, medieval and post-medieval finds. Given the results of previous investigations and the proximity of the prehistoric barrows, six additional trenches were investigated within the footprints of the proposed new buildings. No archaeological features, deposits or residual finds of pre-modern date were encountered within the evaluation trenches. The evaluation established that 0.66m-1.23m of modern made-ground deposits, which had been deposited during the preparatory groundworks, overlaid the natural clay.
