Abstract/Summary

OASIS: Project Methodology: Intermittent archaeological monitoring was undertaken during the excavation of new ducting trenches and installation pits for new light posts. Project Results: A small number of undated ditches and other features were noted, but none were excavated as they lay beyond the area affected by the groundworks. The results confirmed the broad archaeological conclusions of the earlier archaeological evaluations on the site.
