A total of five trenches were excavated. Each trench measured 1.8m in width, and, in total, 369m of linear trenches were excavated. The topsoil ranged from 0.32m to 0.87m in thickness and was a dark brown silty clay. The natural varied from an orangish-brown clayey gravel to a light grey and orange gravel. No archaeological structures, features or deposits were observed or exposed within the trenches. The proposed development will have no impact on any archaeology.
