Archaeological impact assessment and test excavtion took place in advance of housing development. Two test trenches of 50m in overall length were mechanically excavated. The exposed stratigraphy consisted of 0.15m sod and garden soil onto 20th-century deposition of building material, timber and plastics (within its eastern half) mixed with garden soil. The western half of the trench consisted of garden soil (0.4m depth) onto the natural subsoil. The subsoil consisted of an orange fine sandy clay, which altered at locations to a brown grey fine silty clay. No archaeology was encountered.
