Abstract:
An archaeological watching brief was carried out during topsoil and subsoil (colluvium) removal and prior to mineral extraction and infrastructure works. Archaeological features and finds were recorded within all areas. Flint artefacts and pottery recovered from within the fills of pits and ditches suggested activity in the area from at least the Late Neolithic; features and finds of Roman and medieval date were also found. Two areas of particular interest were identified. The first lay directly to the west of Suttons Farm buildings (Area A) and comprised evidence of a 12th/13th AD century occupation suggesting a medieval origin to Suttons Farm. The second lay to the south-east of the farm (Area C). This also included ditches of medieval date but with an earlier trackway and ditches probably dating from the Roman period. These latter ditches were likely to have been part of a more extensive system identified during trench evaluation by the Hertfordshire Archaeological Trust in 1996. [Au(adp)]
