Abstract: |
In 2014, the Secretary of State for Transport gave consent for the construction of a road, known as the Woodside Link, running up the east side of Houghton Regis to a proposed new junction on the M1. Archaeological field evaluation in 2012 identified a number of Cultural Heritage Asset Groups that would be impacted by the new road. The Development Consent Order contained a requirement for a programme of archaeological mitigation works. One of the heritage assets affected by the development was Chalton Cross Farm, a 19th-century planned farmstead directly on the line of the new road. Mitigation works consisted of building recording of the farm buildings that were to be demolished;The farmhouse and farm buildings formed a regular courtyard plan in two parts. The western part, which is still extant, contains the farmhouse and outbuildings. The larger eastern part was the working farmyard; it is this part that was subject to building recording prior to demolition. |
