Testing was undertaken in the grounds of the Clare Inn Hotel. The hotel owners were undertaking expansion works and as part of the planning process testing was required. Located c. 300m to the north of the site was an enclosure. Nine trenches were opened on the development site, with the only feature discovered being a modern chipping/hardcore-covered service trench. No archaeological remains were uncovered in the course of testing works.
