Abstract: |
In order to determine the archaeological risk posed by a proposal to construct new housing on land at 'Romany Rye', London Road, Boxmoor, the Heritage Network was commissioned by the developer to undertake a programme of archaeological evaluation in advance of development. Three trenches were excavated across the proposed development site. The only archaeological feature encountered was a single un-urned cremation in Trench 2. The cremation contained no datable artefacts, but is likely to be associated with the Romano-British activity in the next plot. The stratigraphy in Trench 3, closest to the London Road frontage, had been heavily disturbed by tree roots and modern services. |
