Hughes, V., 2012, Atlantic Array Onshore Cable Route and Substation, Bideford, Devon. Archaeological Evlauation Report, 17; Trench 20; Fig 9 (Report - Evaluation). SDV349995.

Only 32 metres of the planned 60 metre Trench 20 was excavated. It was targeted on an area immediately west of Dunn Lane suggested by geophysical survey to contain two possible linear cut features and a possible cut and bank. The trench was devoid of archaeological remains.


Dick, A. M., 2014, Evaluation east of Dunn Lane (Personal Comment). SDV357390.

It is unclear from the evaluation report whether the targeted features were situated in that part of the trench which was not excavated.
