The archaeological evaluation was conducted on the 2nd June 2016. The workshop construction had almost been completed upon arrival on site with the areas to be evaluated at the N and NE edge of site left without tarmac. A single 15 m long trench was excavated through an area in the NE corner, encountering modern type 1 sitting upon a geogrid that overlay the 0.2 m thick former dark brown clayey topsoil. This in turn overlay 0.17 m of made ground consisting of grey and orange clay that directly overlay the natural orange clay subsoil.
