Abstract:
Following a geophysical survey in 2009, the area was evaluated by twenty 50m-long trial trenches, sampling 2% of the area. These revealed a moderate concentration of pits, ditches and some possible post-holes in the southern half of the area, with only a few isolated remains to the north. At the southern edge of the site, however, next to the River Great Ouse, post-medieval quarrying has limited the potential for archaeological remains to survive. Only a small finds assemblage was recovered from these features, much of which is likely to be residual. The available evidence suggests that the remains are prehistoric, dating perhaps to the Neolithic, yet the paucity of artefactual evidence means this cannot be concluded with confidence. A Neolithic date would make these remains of regional significance, yet an undated collection of such remains is only of low significance.
