The area fell within the area of Scheduled Monument No. 29931 which contains the remains of two Roman marching camps. Two areas of subsidence were investigated prior to repair. Trenches 1 and 2 produced no archaeological features or finds. Trench 3 produced the remains of a ditch running NE-SW. The ditch was left in situ so no dating evidence was recovered. (1)
