Abstract: |
Planning consent was granted by East Northamptonshire Council for the demolition of a bungalow and garage and erection of two dwellings with integral garaging at Bechers, Nags Head Lane, Hargrave. The archaeological works were undertaken in coordination with the groundworks contractor to monitor the various components of ground disturbance that could impact buried archaeological remains. The initial removal of the footings for the former bungalow and garage was monitored. This was followed by groundworks associated with the construction of the foundations for the two new dwellings. The final component of the monitoring was excavation of soak-aways at the rear of the plot, together with associated drainage trenches. Apart from evidence of a former cultivation soil surviving at the western margin of the site, beyond ground disturbance associated with the modern bungalow, no evidence of former human activity in the form of archaeological features or artefacts was revealed during the groundworks. |
