Abstract:		 MOLA (Museum of London Archaeology) was commissioned by CgMs to carry out an archaeological trial trench evaluation on land at Eaton Leys, Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire prior to the proposed development of the site. Twenty-two trenches were located within the evaluation targeting geophysical anomalies. A single early-middle Roman cremation, located less than 200m to the south of the Scheduled Monument of the Roman town of Magiovinium, was the only feature uncovered in the northern part of the evaluation. Around 1km to the south of Magiovinium, seven trenches were targeted over geophysical anomalies. A settlement was located in the far south-western corner of the proposed development area where most of the features and artefacts were recovered and the geophysical anomalies suggest enclosures. The site seems to start in the early Roman period and continued into at least the mid 3rd century. To the east, one trench produced three early Roman features including a curvilinear ditch. A moderate quantity of pottery (mostly parts of a range of locally made jars) was recovered from these features.
