Due to the location of a ringfort (TS061-087) at close proximity to the site of the proposed construction of a dwelling house, a programme of archaeological testing was implemented as part of an impact assessment of the proposal. The ringfort is located in the same field as the house site, c. 30m to its north.
A total of five test trenches were opened across the imprint of the proposed works. Other than evidence for land improvement works in the form of land drainage, the testing revealed no archaeological features and/or remains.
