Abstract: |
Ten trial trenches, 1.8m wide, were excavated across the site of a proposed residential development at Old Stratford. No archaeological fieldwork had been carried out on the development area previously. The site was adjacent to the A5, formerly the line of the Roman Road, and several chance finds of Roman material were recorded in the area. In addition, pottery sherds of Roman and Saxion date were recovered during the construction of a water pipeline which crossed the northern end of the development area. Consequently the site had been identified as being of reasonable archaeological potential. In the event, however, no archaeological finds or deposits were recovered from any of the ten trrial trenches. [Au(adp)] |
