Trenches were set out by an OA Surveyor using a GPS with a sub 15mm accuracy. Trenches were opened by a 13t excavator fitted with a toothless ditching bucket under constant archaeological supervision. Machining was undertaken in even spits to the surface of the natural geology, with topsoil and subsoil stored separately adjacent but at a safe distance from the trench edges. All features and deposits were assigned unique context numbers and described using OA pro forma context records. Digital photos were taken of any archaeological features, deposits, trenches and the evaluation work in general. Plans were produced at an appropriate scale (normally 1:50 or 1:100) with larger scale plans of features produced as necessary. Sections of features will be drawn at a scale of 1:20. All section drawings were digitally located. The absolute height (m OD) of all principal strata and features, and the section datum lines, was calculated and is indicated on the drawings. On completion of the works and in agreement with Toby Catchpole of GCC all trenches were backfilled with arisings in reverse order of excavation. Oxford Archaeology was commissioned by EDP Ltd on behalf of Descram Holdings Ltd to undertake a trial trench evaluation of a land adjacent to Orchard Industrial Estate, Toddington. The work comprised the exaction of nine trenches and was undertaken between the 14th and 17th November 2022. The trial trenching revealed a single undated pit in Trench 2. No significant remains were recorded, and all other features revealed were considered to be agricultural in origin.
