Abstract:		 An archaeological trial trench evaluation was undertaken on the site of a proposed housing development on land to the rear of 35 and 37 Church Street, Long Bennington, Lincolnshire. The site is located on the west bank of the River Witham in the historic core of the village, approximately 600m north-west of the medieval parish church and site of the Cistercian Priory. The archaeological adviser to South Kesteven District Council (SKDC), identified the high potential of the site to contain significant archaeological and paleoenvironmental remains, and advised that a trial trenching evaluation be conducted in order to determine whether such remains were indeed present. Deposits and features revealed in the trial trenches indicated the survival of traces of occupation of early medieval date, particularly in a localised area towards the riverside. Occupation within the site area appeared to have ceased within the medieval period, and the site was given over to cultivation. Alluvial deposition revealed in Trench 3 illustrated the influence of the river in the north-eastern part of the site. Finds recovered during the investigation included a small but very mixed assemblage of pottery, ranging from residual material of Iron Age or early Saxon date through to at least the 16th century. In addition, a small collection of animal bone fragments was recovered, amongst which were identified the remains of horse, cattle, sheep/goat, pig, dog, cat, and chicken
