Abstract:
Northamptonshire Archaeology carried out excavation and a watching brief on land off Bridge Street, Buckingham. An L-shaped trench, 150m long by 5m-wide, had one arm parallel to the River Great Ouse and the Market Square properties and the other aligned parallel to Bridge Street. The watching brief covered the remainder of the site during earth moving prior to development. The evidence from the excavations and watching brief indicate that there was very limited activity in some back-plots and along the river bank from as early as the 12th century, although the main activity was from the 16th century onwards. Evidence for occupation or activity was greatest closer to the rear of the Market Street frontages but was not particularly extensive or intensive. The river bank showed evidence for increased silting and works to alleviate flooding from about the same time. A variable water table and seasonal flooding of the river may have precluded more intensive land-use.
