Trial trenching comprising the excavation of twenty 50m long trenches. The trenches were positioned to investigate a selection of anomalies identified by the geophysical survey, as well as areas where no anomalies were detected. Archaeological features were uncovered in seven trenches, including a gully dating to the late Bronze Age/early Iron Age, and a pit and posthole dating to the early Iron Age. The nature of these features and the quantity of pottery recovered suggests they are most likely to be related to small scale settlement activity. Later activity was represented by features associated with the post-medieval agricultural and land division activity. These consisted of several probable boundary/drainage ditches, two of which correspond with boundaries marked on the 1838 tithe map, and a pit.
