Abstract

The watching brief revealed a small number of archaeological features. One pit containing medieval coarseware pottery and one north-east to south-west orientated ditch were identified. The ditch was observed in three of the monitored trenches and is the same feature as that observed during an earlier trial trench evaluation of the site. One intervention through the ditch revealed a single sherd of medieval pot and a second intervention revealed animal bone fragments but no dating evidence.

The two archaeological features are most likely medieval and relate to the shrunken medieval settlement which lies directly to the south of the site.
