All intrusive groundworks were monitored and recorded in order to identify any archaeological finds, features or deposits. Groundworks were carried out under the constant supervision of the archaeologist. Where machine excavation was required, it was only used for the removal of non-significant overburden. Plant was suitable for the task and was equipped with a toothless grading bucket. Appropriate sections were recorded to be able to characterise the stratigraphy of the area impacted by the groundworks. No significant archaeological features, deposits or finds were present within the cable trench.
