Monitoring of topsoil clearance took place on the site of a new factory (Stage 1). The site lay 350m south-west of a souterrain complex recently excavated by Carleton Jones (see No. 701, Excavations 1999). The natural prominence of the site under discussion raised the possibility of an associated(?) settlement. The only features encountered during the stripping operation were associated with old field boundaries and land drains. No features or finds of an archaeological nature were uncovered.
