Archaeological Evaluation (27 October 2009 - 28 October 2009)
NT 1413 5234 An evaluation was undertaken on 27–28 October on a residential development site. Four trenches totalling nearly 15% of the development were excavated. A single large pit interpreted as a 19th- to 20th-century sand quarry, based on the presence of mortar, brick fragments and glazed white ceramics, was the only feature encountered.
