Evaluation by R Entwistle and P Jones of SCAU prior to the creation of a golf course. The area of holes 10--18 was examined. The larger part of the evaluation area of hole 10 was negative, although a small number of features apparently of Iron Age to Early Roman date were revealed. Holes 11--18 were examined in 2007, but unreported at the time. A small number of prehistoric features were revealed. Additional trial trenching by N Shaikhley was carried out in the vicinity of the suspected flint mines revealed during the evaluation of 2007.

Evaluation by S Holden of PCA recovered residual prehistoric flints and Bronze Age and Roman pottery, but later post-medieval deposits immediately overlying the natural horizon suggests the site was subject to landscaping in the 19th century.

Evaluation by S Holden of PCA revealed evidence of prehistoric activity in the form of residual finds, a probable gully of early Roman date, and post-medieval remains including an element of an 18th century structure and 19th century landscaping. The evaluation illustrated that archaeological remains lie at a depth that will not be impacted upon by most of the groundworks involved in the development proposed for the site, and they will be preserved in situ beneath it.

Watching brief by D Williams of SCAU during the excavation of an easement strip for the installation of a new pipeline revealed a small quantity of struck and burnt flints of prehistoric date deposited in the topsoil. A metal detector survey did not recover any finds dated to earlier than the 19th century.

Evaluation by N Randall of SCAU of a further area of the site revealed a scattering of burnt flints and a sherd of a Bronze Age or earlier pot, and a modern pit.

Final season of the ongoing research excavation by P Harp of Plateau continued to recover later prehistoric material

Watching brief by N Shaikhley of SCAU during the laying of a sewer pipeline recovered worked and burnt flints and a small sherd of possible early medieval pot, but did not reveal any features of archaeological interest.

Watching brief by E Rowe of CA during soil stripping in advance of mineral extraction did not reveal any features or deposits of archaeological interest, but a small assemblage of prehistoric struck flint, a single sherd of abraded Roman pottery, and abraded sherds of post-medieval glazed earthenwares were recovered from the topsoil.

Watching brief by J Robertson of SCAU during topsoil stripping of an area to provide a site compound for use during engineering works. No features of archaeological interest were revealed, although a small quantity of probable prehistoric flint tools was recovered.
