Abstract:
A desk-based assessment of a canalside site north of Watling Street, Fenny Stratford revealed the probability of archaeology of late prehistoric and Roman date extending from adjacent known sites. Following the construction of the Grand Junction Canal at the end of the 18th century limekilns were established on the site, with their own canal dock and wharf. Subsequently a brickworks was constructed on the site, and clay extraction pits were excavated. In the mid 19th century a gasworks was established at the south end of the site, with two large gasholders to the north. More recent industrial uses have included a printing works and chemical works. The latter has since been demolished: a significant depth of contaminated soil was removed from the south part of the site as part of this process.
