Abstract:
MOLA Northampton was commissioned by Midway South to carry out an archaeological trial trench evaluation on land south of A4500 Weedon Road west of Northampton, Northamptonshire prior to the proposed development of the site and following geophysical survey (Walford 2015). Seventy-five trenches were excavated. Archaeological remains were identified in the eastern half of the site. The trial trenching identified two areas of Iron Age rectilinear field system as indicated by the geophysical survey, with a pit alignment, circular enclosures and a probable roundhouse. Two areas of 1st to 4th-century Roman settlement were also identified, including a large rectangular enclosure with rectilinear field systems, a subcircular enclosure and the stone foundations of two structures, probably relating to food-processing activity. The remnant earthwork remains of medieval ridge and furrow cultivation strips were also present in parts of the site.
