NHER 65237 (Monument record) - Large ?medieval hollow and other features of probable natural origin

December 2016. Trial Trenching.
Evaluation of proposed development site.
The eight trenches excavated revealed a number of features, although these were mostly of uncertain date and nature. The most notable was a large, relatively shallow hollow in the north-west corner of the site with very dark fills that produced two sherds of probable medieval and fragments of animal bone. This was probably of natural origin, as were various shallow, amorphous discrete features recorded in several of the other trenches. The one possibly exception was a possible north-north-east to south-south-west aligned ditch, although was also a shallow and somewhat irregular feature.
