Abstract: |
In September 2011, an archaeological trial trench evaluation was undertaken by Northamptonshire Archaeology on behalf of Prospect Archaeology for ARLA Foods on land at Aston Clinton, Buckinghamshire. A late Iron Age/Romano-British settlement, dating from the early/mid 1st century AD to the 4th century, occupied an area of c1.5ha at the south-east of the site. The settlement comprised a series of rectilinear ditched enclosures, as well as structural remains, pits and an inhumation burial. A further small focus of activity lay to the north-east. Possibly defining the eastern boundary of the settlement was a broad feature that may be a palaeochannel, although its course was not visible on the geophysical survey. A sinuous, low bank sealed the palaeochannel and may demarcate the parish boundary, although the date of its construction is unknown. Further to the north the parish boundary appeared to be marked by a broad, shallow ditch, also undated. |
