Abstract:		 The site had a high potential for archaeology of the Bronze Age, Iron Age and Romano-British periods with a possible masking of such periods by the remains of a ridge and furrow cultivation which was reminiscent of the medieval period. A sophisticated Bronze Age and Iron Age settlement site which included a possible metal working area reached as far as the plot adjacent to the current site. Gullies and linears ran through the site on an almost unanimous north to south alignment, except for a single east to west gully as found in Trench 7. The linears revealed are mainly shallow and it was originally suggested onsite that these were truncated by ploughing activity which predates the modern redeposited clay overburden layer L1000. However, another interpretation of the site is that the linears themselves are the remains of a plough damage such as medieval ridge and furrow cultivation. This would account for their regular spacing, shallowness and uniform profile. This work represented a second phase of evaluation following that carried out by Northamptonshire Archaeology. These two phases of evaluation have demonstrated that the site fits into the wider landscape of this area to the south of Papworth Everard which is characterised by Iron Age occupation (preceded by Bronze Age activity that appears not to have been identified during this project), Romano-British activity and medieval and later agricultural activity.
