Abstract:
A pre-application enquiry has been made regarding the conversion of an existing office building into flats and the erection of seven houses at 41 High Street, Henlow An archaeological evaluation revealed extensive make-up deposits of post-medieval to modern date, with occasional associated features comprising pathways and a ditch. At a depth of between 0.9m and 1.2m a series of earlier archaeological features were revealed, comprising shallow, perpendicular, ditched boundaries. These are tentatively dated to the Saxo-Norman period by a small pottery assemblage. These features were severely truncated by later activity and very disturbed by extensive rooting. In this area, below the alluvium were a series of dark deposits possible filling an old watercourse. In summary, the evaluation revealed deeply buried deposits dating from the Saxo-Norman period onwards, although the assemblage of datable pottery is small. Due to the deep overburden, the impact of the proposed development is likely to be limited to only the deepest components of the groundworks.
