Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken on land at Newlands Road, Welford, Northamptonshire (SP 6394 8002) between the 27th to 30th March 2017 by University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) on behalf of Mears New Homes Ltd. The fieldwork was a post-determination requirement in advance of a proposed residential development. The archaeological potential for the site was highlighted by its close proximity to the medieval core of Welford to the north and the recently excavated Iron settlement located within Phase 1 of the development immediately south. Five trenches totalling 151m in length and 1.8m wide were excavated during the course of the evaluation. The trenches were located in order to target areas of impact from the proposed development. Three of trenches produced positive results. The trenches located at the north-east end of the site closest to the village (Trench 1 and 2) recorded a series of ditches and gullies that were mainly orientated parallel or perpendicular to West End. Smaller pit/posthole features and a larger cut feature was also recorded that may represent part of a pond or clay excavation pit. A small quantity of medieval and post-medieval pottery were recovered from some of the features but the majority were undated. Trench 5, located at the south-east end of the site recorded a possible ditch and a curvi-linear feature, reminiscent of a roundhouse eaves drip gully. Unfortunately no dating material was recovered from either of these features
