Abstract:		 An archaeological watching brief in 2000 during the construction of an access road on land at Warth Park, Raunds, located two pits of a pit alignment known from aerial photography. In 2004, a trench 45m long was targeted on the pit alignment and fourteen pits, all rectangular with steeply sloping sides and flat bases, were excavated. In 2005, a further 24 pits were recorded but not excavated during a watching brief. The length of the alignment examined comprised successive groups of five or six pits that were on the same alignment as neighbouring groups, but with the lines slightly offset from each other by 0.4m to 1.4m. At the junction of these groups there was often a pit or pits filling the gap and shortened to maintain the consistency of spacing. A few fragments of coarse pottery from four of the excavated pits is tentatively attributed to the early Iron Age.
