Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation, consisting of desk-based assessment and the excavation of three trial trenches, was undertaken prior to proposed housing development. The desk-based assessment showed that the area was densely occupied from Roman and perhaps Iron Age times, with some evidence of earlier prehistoric use and settlement connected with the major monument complex in the Nene flood plain. The village itself had a Saxon origin, with two distinct foci and from these evolved the medieval settlement, which was essentially fossilised in the surviving pattern of streets and lanes. The complete absence of any detectable archaeological remains and artefacts, other than those of very modern date, suggested that the site had never been occupied and had always been situated outside of the village of Stanwick.
