Abstract: |
A planning application was made to Kettering Borough Council for residential development at The Bungalow, Higham Road, Burton Latimer, Northamptonshire. Seven 14m-long trial trenches were opened. The trial trenching located furrows indicating the development area was once within medieval open fields. A small number of undated or modern features were also identified. However, the most significant evidence comprised the continuation of the Romano-British settlement identified in archaeological investigations on adjacent land. This comprised part of a ditched enclosure and evidence for more dispersed activity outside the enclosure. The density and type of features, presence of only small quantities of domestic debris and absence of significant charred plant remains suggest that the development area is away from the main domestic focus or core of the settlement. |
