Evaluation over an area of 50 hectares, wherein dense archaeology from early prehistoric to Medieval periods was represented. Five main 'sites' were identified. Early neolithic pottery and flint was found in quantity in later prehistoric features; these being of Late Bronze to Early Iron Age date. This included three ditched enclosures, one on a hill slope with a nearby contemporary burial, and the other two with limited signs of occupation. Unenclosed Mid to Late Iron Age settlement supersedes the enclosures. extensive Roman activity may be connected with a nearby villa estate. Much of this appears to be field systems, with occupation at the north and south edges of the PDA. An early Saxon cemetery liest within one of the prehistoric enclosures, with Saxo-Norman settlement set within an enclosure on the south edge of the PDA. The foundations of four Medieval windmills were also identified; these being of postmill design and dating to the fourteenth century.
