Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	Planning permission was granted for the conversion of the Two Brewers Public House in Stotfold into a residential dwelling, along with the construction of three new dwellings - two in the former public house car park and one in the former beer garden. Following on from an earlier evaluation, an archaeological excavation was carried out in accordance with the brief and a Written Scheme of Investigation. The earliest feature revealed during the investigations was a large boundary ditch aligned NNE-SSW. The majority of the archaeological features on site appear to date to between the 1st century BC and 2nd century AD. These comprise a large pit and an enclosure that adjoins a boundary defined by several inter-cutting ditches. The relatively high number of recovered pottery sherds indicates that these features are likely to be in the immediate vicinity of a contemporary settlement. The animal bone and fired clay fragments also recovered further reinforce the idea that domestic activities are located close by. Later features comprise a ditch, possibly dating to the late Saxon period, and the footprint of an outbuilding associated with the Victorian cottage previously used for the 'Two Brewers'.
