Abstract:		 Albion Archaeology was commissioned to undertake the archaeological evaluation of approximately 11.4 hectares of land situated adjacent to Stratton Business Park, south of Biggleswade, Bedfordshire. The site is situated within an archaeologically sensitive location containing evidence of Iron Age and Roman occupation. A total of 29 trenches were opened, 10 within the Central land parcel and 19 within the Western land parcel. The results from an additional four trenches were incorporated from an earlier trial excavation. Of the 33 trenches, 27 contained archaeological remains. The evaluation has confirmed the presence of archaeological features consisting of the well-preserved remains of Iron Age activity. These Iron Age remains probably represent a series of enclosures and a settlement area with peripheral activity likely to be an associated field system. Preservation of the archaeological remains across the site was generally good as indicated by the survival of features such as postholes and the depth of the features.
