Full Description
A watching brief was carried out by AOC Archaeology in July 2019 during topsoil stripping for quarry extension (see also NJ66NW0024). Five possible features were uncovered, three possibly relating to post-medieval agricultural activity, although two may be natural. All were heavily truncated and none contained any artefacts.
