Three test-trenches were excavated in advance of the proposed construction of an extension to the rear of a residential building. This was situated within the northern zone of potential for a church and graveyard. The southernmost of the trenches was occupied by a large modern drainage pipe. The remaining trenches indicated modern disturbance, bedding hardcore and a late 19th-century cobbled yard surface. Nothing of an archaeological nature was discovered during the testing.
