Watching brief by J Stevenson of SCAU during groundworks involved in the excavation of a new sewer. The exposed sections of the sewer trench were too unstable to be examined safely, so only the general stratigraphy was recorded. The accompanying easement strip removed only the topsoil and so did not impact on the archaeology bearing horizons, but a number of unstratified late Neolithic or early Bronze Age struck flints (3 cores, 4 flakes, 1 retouched flake, 1 notched flake) were recovered from the subsoil and removed topsoil.
