Abstract:		 An earthwork survey was required by the Bedfordshire County Archaeological Officer in order to establish the extent and condition of ridge and furrow earthworks in Archaeology Areas 5 and 6 of The Wixams development area. Albion Archaeology was commissioned by RPS Planning (the Wixams Historic Environment project managers), on behalf of Gallagher Estates, to undertake the survey and prepare a report on the results This survey was designed to characterise the remnant ridge and furrow field systems and allow their importance to be assessed. Areas 5 and 6 lie on the hinterland of known medieval settlement cores at Wilstead and Duck-End. Therefore, it was not unexpected that this land would have formed part of the land exploited for agricultural purposes during that period. The survey has recorded the remnants of medieval ridge and furrow earthworks present in those fields and reviewed the results in the light of extant historical map evidence.
