The site lies in area of archaeological interest defined by previous discoveries of Anglo-Saxon and medieval material. Four evaluation trenches on the position of a proposed dwelling, garage, swimming pool and tennis court were stripped as stipulated in the wsi. Four evaluation trenches on the position of a proposed dwelling, garage, swimming pool and tennis court revealed only a modern post-hole (part of an old paddock fence-line) and a modern clinker-filled land drain. These are of no archaeological importance. No archaeological strata or features were exposed which are worthy of preservation in situ, and no further archaeological work has been requested by SCCAS. The depth and nature of the soils sealing the archaeological features is consistent with soil generated by normal agricultural activities. There were no masking colluvial deposits.
