It was proposed to construct 26 two-storey houses. Testing was sought as part of a request for further information. Five test-trenches were excavated. The trenches were between 70m and 90m in length and 1m in width. The testing did not reveal any features or finds of antiquity and no soil anomalies indicative of possible features of archaeological significance were apparent.
