September 2011. Trial Trenching.
Evaluation of proposed development site. Within an area containing cropmark features likely to represent medieval and post-medieval field boundaries (NHER 45262).
This work identified a number of field boundary ditches, including some not previously detected on aerial photographs. The dating evidence suggested that a number of these features were post-medieval or modern in date, with the remaining features being undatable. There was little correlation between these features and the cropmark boundaries previously identified in this area.
