Abstract: |
Planning permission was granted by Bedford Borough Council for a new side and rear extension to the main house at 146 High Street, Harrold. The works included demolition of the existing conservatory, excavation of foundations for the new extension and necessary services, together with landscaping associated with a new patio to the rear of the building. The groundworks were monitored and consisted of the excavation of a set of foundation trenches for the building extension, a service trench and a soakaway. No archaeological features were revealed at the back of 146 High Street, Harrold. Seventeen 12th-13th century pottery sherds, representing 16 vessels were retrieved during cleaning of the base of the foundation trenches. Such material is common in Harrold and the sherds are part of a general background scatter of pottery, most likely spread through manuring. |
