Abstract: |
Planning permission was granted by Central Bedfordshire Council for the erection of a two-storey side extension at East Cottage, Hinxworth Road, Edworth, Bedfordshire. Albion Archaeology was commissioned to carry out archaeological works in accordance with the methodologies described in a Written Scheme of Investigation No archaeological features or deposits of significance were revealed during the observation and investigation of the construction groundworks. Other than geological deposits, only layers associated with past land-use of the area as a garden were revealed. A deposit of former topsoil (3) yielded a single pot sherd, a jar rim dated to the 11th-12th century which is likely to be residual in this context. The small size of the Saxo-Norman pottery assemblage suggests that the development area is situated beyond the probable Saxon and medieval settlement focus at Edworth. |
