Abstract:		 Groundworks consisted of the excavation of four building footprints. These footprints were reduced to the natural horizon at between 0.3m and 0.48m below ground level. The footprints were reduced with a bladed bucket, observed by an archaeologist. The resultant spoil from the works was visually scanned, especially for finds relating to the Iron Age and Roman periods. Beyond the excavation of the building footprints, the assessment of all further works indicated that they would not disturb any horizon lower than the overlying topsoil. It was agreed with the county archaeologist that no further monitoring was required for these works. The archaeological monitoring of the excavation of the building footprints failed to reveal any dating evidence relating to the Iron Age or Roman periods. No finds were recovered from site. The single post-hole in plot 1 could not be securely dated to the Iron Age or Roman periods, and may be related to a later phase of activity in the area. Due to the lack of further archaeological features in the surrounding vicinity, the use of the post-hole or further contextual information could not ascertained. Two different top soil deposits were observed. The deposit across the west of site appeared to be naturally formed from silting, whereas the topsoil seen in plot 2 was likely the result of modern development works occurring prior to the current works. The full extent and point of change from topsoil (01) to topsoil (08) was not observed.
