Description
The development area is c.2.9km west of the village, north of Ollerton Road. The site is currently agricultural land with woodland to the west, fields to the north and east and trackway to the south.
During the fieldwork the monitoring archaeologist inspected all exposed plan and section surfaces, with a view to undertake the limited, rapid excavation of any archaeological remains for artefact recovery and clarity of the shape and orientation of the features. Topsoil and subsoil, and spoil heaps were also inspected for flint artefacts.
No archaeological features, deposits or finds were observed during monitoring and recording on land at Farleys Farm. The absence of features noted on this site and the very limited finds to the northeast, during archaeological work in preparation for the erection of poultry units, suggest the focus of any early prehistoric activity in the area, lay elsewhere.
