Abstract:		 Outline planning permission was granted for the erection of 50 dwellings on land to the rear of 93 Aylesbury Road, Aston Clinton, Buckinghamshire. A heritage statement submitted as part of the initial planning application recognised a moderate to high potential for the preservation of prehistoric to Roman heritage assets on the proposed development area and archaeological investigations recently undertaken in the vicinity revealed Romano-British remains. Albion Archaeology was commissioned to undertake the fieldwork. The trial trenching took place between 28th November and 12th December 2016 and comprised the excavation of fourteen trenches measuring 25m long and 1.8m wide. The trial trenching has shown that medieval / post-medieval furrows and modern drains are present across the area There are also other archaeological features within the north-eastern half of area but they are absent from the south-western half of the site, with the exception of two undated post-holes. In the north-eastern half were six large pits, eight small pits and eight ditches were present within the trenches. These features produced virtually no artefacts. The ditches probably represent field system boundaries. The purpose of the pits is uncertain; some of the larger ones may be related to quarrying. One of the small pits contained fragments of human cranium. This may derive from a burial disturbed in antiquity but its significance is uncertain. Due to the paucity of artefacts, dating of these features is problematic.
