Abstract:
An archaeological field evaluation was carried out and three linear trenches were excavated in order to sample the development area. The trenches sited two archaeological features, a ditch and the butt end of a stone feature, the latter of which could be tentatively interpreted as a stone wall foundation. The evaluation also showed the potential building platform to be an outcrop of natural sandstone combined with topsoil build-up produced by tree-root activity. [Au(adp)]
