Abstract: |
Northamptonshire Archaeology conducted geophysical survey followed by archaeological excavation on land off the 'Old' Bedford Road, Little Houghton, Northampton. The geophysical survey was not greatly informative, although the data may represent ditches. Two trenches were excavated, one of which revealed a curvilinear gully and three ditches of late Iron Age, early 1st century AD, date and a Roman ditch of probable late 1st-century date. Dominating both trenches were three large Victorian rubbish pits, from which substantial sized sherds of 18th- century Chinese export porcelain were retained. |
