Abstract:
An archaeological desk-based assessment was undertaken of the proposed 20km pipeline between Willington Above Ground Installation and Steppingley AGI. There were three broad zones of archaeological potential within the study corridor. The most important of these lay at the north end of the route. It largely consisted of an extensive series of cropmarks lying immediately south of Willinton AGI, and represented probable prehistoric and/or Romano-British settlements. These cropmarks represented the largest complex in Bedfordshire, and they were of considerable significance. The two other zones of potential were in the central part of the proposed route, south of Houghton Conquest village, where medieval settlement remains were likely, and in the south part of the route, between Millbrook and Steppingley, where the suggested courses of Roman roads, as well as cropmark enclosures, reflected the former presence of Roman and prehistoric settlements and related features.
