NS 4870 7252 An archaeological evaluation was carried out prior to the development of Ocean Field, the possible location of the find of a 'Roman vase' (NMRS NS47SE 11). An evaluation comprising the machine-excavation in excess of 3% (608m2) of the proposed development area was undertaken; no archaeological features were revealed. The field comprised two well-defined terraces, the upper of which had been heavily truncated to construct a garage and car showroom. It is probable that the resultant material was then used to level up the lower terrace, which contained up to 1.5m of redeposited soil.
