Oxford Archaeological Unit was commissioned by Union Railways Ltd to conduct a field evaluation of 5.4ha of land near Brockton Farm. Nineteen evaluation trenches were excavated across three arable fields. Ten trenches contained archaeological features, predominantly pits, ditches and gullies. Very little dating evidence was recovered, the majority of which was poest-medieval in date. Most of the features were probably associated with post-medieval agricultural activities. Two gullies were found, sealed by colluvium, which may have been prehistoric, althougfh neither produced dating evidence(1).
