Abstract: |
In November 2015, Network Archaeology carried out an archaeological evaluation on land adjacent to The Well House, Banbury Lane, Culworth, Northamptonshire (NGR 454374 246851). A single trench was opened using a mechanical excavator and a second trench was opened by hand. A short section of the site perimeter baulk was cleaned and recorded. The evaluation identified possible garden features, comprising a pair of walls, two rubble spreads and a drain, all dating to the late eighteenth or nineteenth century AD, in the northern half of the permitted development area. Although no earlier cut features were identified, a single sherd of unabraded early to middle Saxon pottery indicated that human activity may have been taking place within the vicinity, perhaps as far back as the sixth century AD. The southern half of the permitted development area may once have been landscaped. |
