Abstract:
In response to a request for further information on the archaeological potential of a proposed development site located between nos. 10 and 19 Roman Lane, Baldock, Herts, the Heritage Network was commissioned by Norsong Ltd to carry out an archaeological evaluation. Two trial trenches were excavated. A linear feature identified in Trench 1 has been tentatively interpreted as a boundary ditch. Reference to historic maps suggests that the ditch is of an earlier rather than a more recent origin, and the lack of datable finds and the compact and homogenous nature of the fill suggests that it may be Iron Age or Roman in date. Two brick structures and building material were identified in Trench 2. These are early to mid 19th century in date, and may relate to buildings which appear on the first edition of the Ordnance Survey dated 1884. These are believed to have been associated with the manufacture of whitewash. The evaluation demonstrated possible Roman or Iron Age activity on the site, which is likely to be preserved below the impact level of the proposed development. Post-medieval remains in the vicinity of Trench 2, associated with the industrial processing of chalk in the early 19th century, may be disturbed by the proposed development.
