A programme of monitoring identified a small number of potential archaeological features, including linear features, discrete pit-like features and short lines of potential stake-holes. A small number of sherds of pottery, a flint scraper, one small sample of cremated bone and one soil sample have been retained from the investigation of the site for post-excavation. The site has been reinstated with topsoil and the archaeological remains preserved in situ.
