Abstract:
An archaeoplogical desk-based assessment was undertaken of the site prior to proposed residential development, consisting of the conversion of four buildings and the construction of seven new houses. The report concluded that the area contained several notable examples of vernacular post-medieval agricultural buildings associated with Home Farm, which would be impacted on by the development. The assessment indicated that the site was situated near to known sites of archaeological significance. The site was probably located within the Roman town of Great Casterton, was on the frontage of Ermine Street and in a landscape of considerable Roman activity, therefore it had considerable archaeological potential. Also the site was located within the area of the medieval village of Great Casterton and the development area may have similarly contained archaeological remains of this date, and perhaps earlier Saxon activity. The report recommended further trial investigation. [Au(adp)]
