Description

Archaeologically relevant levels have survived on this site buried beneath a considerable thickness of modern made ground. However, the archaeological potential of the site is considered to be low with just a single undated gully observed. The soils buried by the modern made ground are of a humic and peaty nature and it is possible that these are suitable for a reconstruction of the vegetational history and environment of the site. Bulk and column samples of this deposit have been taken and retained for future study if required, without a need for further fieldwork (B1).
There is a tentative indication form the limited pollen assemblage of an open woodland environment at the time of their accumulation (B2).
