The northeast of the site is in the zone of archaeological potential associated with a souterrain (LH007-092). A total of 5 test trenches were excavated. Each trench measured 1.8m in width, and in total, 71m of linear trenches were excavated. The topsoil was a greyish-brown silty clay, and the natural ranged from an orange silty clay to an orangish-brown gravel. No archaeological features or deposits were observed or exposed within the trenches; therefore, the proposed development will have no impact on archaeological features. No further work is recommended.
