Abstract:
Evaluation and subsequent excavation, as part of a mitigation strategy under PPG16, in advance of a housing development on the outskirts of Flitwick revealed settlement activity from the Iron Age through to the Saxon period. The earliest settlement, originally unenclosed but subsequently enclosed, was established during the middle Iron Age on a low ridge in the upper Flit valley The available evidence suggests the enclosed farmstead may have been based on a largely pastoralist economy. The study area was devoid of late Iron Age/early Roman activity with a new settlement established in the 2nd century AD. Traces of Early to Middle Saxon occupation were also recorded.
