NHER 65114 (Monument record) - Undated pit

July 2014. Desk-based Assessment.
Assessment of Weston Park Golf Club ahead of its proposed expansion and improvement.
This study concluded that there was a moderate to high potential for archaeologically-significant remains within the proposed development area. It was also deemed likely that any remains present would be in a good state of preservation.
No archaeological or historical features of interest were noted during a brief site visit.
See report (S1) for further details, including a summary of the documentary and cartographic sources that document the development of Weston Park, which was established soon after the construction of Weston Hall in the late 18th century.

June 2015. Geophysical Survey.
Magnetometer survey of land to north of Weston Park Golf Club (Fields 2A and 2B).
This survey of two separate blocks in the northern half of the site identified no potentially archaeologically-significant responses.
Several isolated dipolar anomalies were probably caused by ferrous material in the topsoil (most likely modern debris) and areas of magnetic disturbance were the result of ferrous deer fences running along the field boundaries.
See report (S2) for further details.

February-March 2016. Trial Trenching.
Evaluation of land to north of Weston Park (Field 1; Trench 15).
The single trench excavated at this location revealed an undated pit. This feature had a charcoal-rich fill and produced a small number of burnt flints.
