Archaeological excavation, prior to development works revealed a hearth surrounded by 50 stake-holes. A shallow, truncated, linear feature (L c. 2.4m) was discovered c. 1.5m west of the hearth. A further seven pits were found to the W, three of which were clustered and similarly sized (diam. 0.45-0.83m; D 0.22-0.3m). Finds from the pits ranged in date from the prehistoric to post-medieval periods. Two further isolated pits to the S produced no finds. (Purcell 2006b, 66-7)
