Abstract: |
During October 2004 Archaeological Services and Consultancy Ltd (ASC) carried out an archaeological trial trench evaluation on a site at Poplar Farm, High Street, Eaton Bray, Bedfordshire. The work was undertaken in advance of proposed residential redevelopment of the site. A total of five trenches were excavated. Trenches 3, 4 and 5 revealed a Medieval ditch representing a probable field or property boundary, from which a small quantity of 12th to 13th century pottery and animal bone was recovered. No archaeological features were observed in trenches 1 and 2 and no evidence for significant truncation or subsoil disturbance was revealed. In conclusion it seems likely that the area has, with the exception of the apparently isolated Medieval ditch, remained largely undisturbed and undeveloped until now. |
