Abstract: |
During October 2004, an archaeological evaluation was undertaken on a parcel of land to the north of Delapre Abbey, Northampton. The work was required to fulfil a PPG16 planning condition imposed by Northampton Borough Council. An initial desk-based assessment concluded that no known sites lay within the confines of the site. However a number of possible Prehistoric and Roman sites have been recorded on the Northamptonshire SMR in the vicinity of Dleapre Abbey. An aerial photograph taken during the 1940''s shows a cropmark interpreted as a early cruciform church to the north of the site. The evaluation comprised four trenches. With the exception of a late 18th or early 19th century stone wall aligned east to west and shown on the 1st edition large scale Ordnance Survey plan the trenches were archaeologically sterile. |
