Abstract: |
Biogen (UK) Ltd is building a biogas plant, with associated access roads, on the site of Higham Park, Rushden, Northamptonshire. The planned development lay within an area of crop-marks that have provisionally been dated to the prehistoric or Roman periods. The southern limit of the development area follows the southern boundary of a medieval deer park, which was enclosed with earthworks. Because of the archaeological potential of the site, a condition was attached to the planning permission requiring a programme of archaeological works be carried out. The subsequent watching brief on construction groundworks identified further remains of the field system, however, no reliable evidence was recovered to confirm its putative Roman date. |
