Abstract:
In October and November 2005, May and June 2006 and September 2008, Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) carried out a programme of archaeological investigations at 82 - 84 Walton Street, Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire (centred on NGR SP 8225 1325; Figs. 1 and 2). The investigations identified four phases of land use spanning the late Bronze Age through early modern periods, but the main periods of activity were Phases 2 and 3; from the middle Saxon to medieval periods (c. AD 550 to 1300). Phase 1 activity dated to the late Bronze Age/ early Iron Age (c. 1300 to 400BC) and comprised a single pit situated in the northern corner of the site. Three further pits contained late Bronze Age/ early Iron Age pottery, but in all instances this is thought to have been residual. Phase 2 activity dated to the middle Saxon period (c. AD 550 to 850) and is represented by a group of large quarry pits thought to have been related to chalk extraction. These large pits were situated in the central part of the site and were cut by an extensive boundary system thought to have been constructed in the late Saxon/ medieval period (Phase 3 - c. AD 850 - 1300). This rectilinear boundary system represents the formal organisation of the land around Walton Street. It is thought that the boundaries were constructed for the containment of livestock as documentary sources reveal that both manorial and peasant owned sheep were grazed in the area during the medieval period. Phase 4 activity dated to the early modern period (AD 1800 to 1900) and comprised a small number of ditches and pits relating to the development of Walton Street as a modern urban settlement.
