Abstract: Planning permission has been granted by Milton Keynes Council for the construction of a new dwelling block and area of hardstanding at 4-6 Union Street, Newport Pagnell. The evaluation revealed two large late medieval/early post medieval pits, and a sequence of pits and structural remains that dated from the early post-medieval period into the Victorian era. The structural remains are likely to relate to outbuildings at the rear of house plots along the High Street. Subsequent monitoring of construction groundworks, identified further archaeological features within the area of development. They comprised ditches and pits of probable medieval date and post-medieval features that included pits, a ditch, a demolition layer and three robbed out foundation trenches. Modern features uncovered included levelling layers, pits, post-holes and robbed-out foundation trenches.
