During the archaeological investigation of the land north and south of Cottington Road ahead of the redevelopment of the site, a variety of archaeological features finds and deposits were recorded. These included a large number of medieval features which appear to represent a ladder settlement. The medieval features are limited to the southern of the two excavation areas and are probably conjoined with the south side of the present course of Cottington Road, implying that the road had been used as a highway during the medieval period (location accurate to the nearest 1m based on available information)
