NT 70609 27008 The archaeological works associated with the planned development consisted of Historic Building Recording at the former parish church, and an archaeological evaluation of the Glebe (located to the west of the church graveyard). The historic building recording created a baseline record of the church and its architectural features, identifying five distinct units within the complex of buildings, some of which date to the original church construction in the 1660s, whilst other elements relate to later renovations, or more recent repair works.

Six evaluation trenches were excavated in the adjacent glebe ahead of development, with one containing features identified as being potentially archaeological. Three possible features were discovered, however all three features appeared to be of either a more modern date, or not archaeologically significant.
