Abstract:		 In order to determine the archaeological risk posed by a proposal to develop the garden of 149 West Street, Dunstable, Bedfordshire, the Heritage Network was commissioned by Robert Gutteridge to undertake a programme of archaeological evaluation. Six trial trenches were opened across the proposed development area. The investigation showed that the southern limit of the site, behind the outbuilding, had been used as a dump for soil and chalk in alternating layers and it is presumed that this material derives from within the site boundaries and was deposited relatively recently. Within the trenches a limited number of features were identified including a single undated posthole, a modern garden path, a chalk yard surface, and several areas of disturbance caused by root activity. The evaluation of the site did not identify any evidence for activity earlier than the Victorian or modern periods. Taking this evidence alongside the evidence for archaeological activity in the general vicinity of the site, the overall risk that the proposed development would disturb archaeological remains of any significance may be considered to be Low.
