Abstract: |
An archaeological desk-based assessment was undertaken in advance of the redevelopment of the site for residential use. In general terms the archaeology of the village and parish was little known. The Roman highway Ermine Street ran through the centre of Stilton, and appeared to have stimulated settlement along its route, although none was known in the modern village itself. The site may have lain within the built-up area of the medieval village, or may have been agricultural fields during this and later periods. The subsequent excavation of three trial trenches revealed sparse archaeological features, dating to the medieval and post-medieval periods. A limestone wall foundation of the post-medieval period was recorded in the northern part of the site, which was demolished by the later 19th century. [Au(adp)] |
