No features of archaeological significance were revealed during testing, and anomalies shown in the geophysical survey were either geological (as a result of large stones), topographical or agricultural. T19, where the geophysical survey showed a potential enclosure, was revealed to be a topographical feature at the base of a natural hillock. The trench was extended by a further 10m to the northwest to ensure no potential archaeological features were missed.
