Abstract:
Following a desk-based assessment field evaluation was carried out at the former Offley Garage site. Two trenches were dug, one of which, in the centre of the site, revealed features on a similar alignment to those discovered at previous excavations at Westbury Farm. Pottery within the features indicated a date of between the 12th and 13th centuries. The finds confirmed the proposition that the garage site had originally been part of the Westbury complex, separated only by the construction of Luton Road in the early 19th century. A possible building was suggested by beam slots and was interpreted as a farm related ancillary building of the early medieval period. Disturbance, during the 20th century, had a great impact on archaeological survival, which was limited to the central part of the site. [Au(abr)]
