Testing was carried out in July 2015 opposite a medieval church and graveyard (CW007-025) in advance of a roundabout development. Trenches revealed ditches, pits and a post-hole suggestive of medieval occupation. Medieval pottery, metal and animal bone were recovered. The site was subsequently excavated under the same licence by Kate Taylor (12E0363 ext.)
