The site is located on the south western edge of the village of East Stoke, c. 5.5 km south west of Newark. The site lies within a level parcel of land c. 0.34 ha in area. A total of three trenches measuring 30 m long and 1.8 m wide were excavated across the site. Despite being located in such an archaeologically rich environment, this evaluation uncovered no archaeological features. This may be due to there being no archaeological activity, but it is more likely that later phases of building, particularly of the school in the 1960s, truncated any features that were present previously.
