Dartington, 700 metres west of Week (SX7720 6245) part of Fishacre-Choakford gas pipeline. Excavation occurred where the pipeline crossed an enclosure previously identified from a cropmark. The enclosure ditches, a terraced building platform, post-holes, and possible hearths were found. An early Romano-British date is likely.
