Abstract: |
In order to determine the archaeological risk posed by a proposal to construct a single storey rear extension to the existing house at 7 Stratford Road, Sandy, Bedfordshire, the Heritage Network was commissioned by Darren Brooker to undertake a programme of archaeological evaluation. The site is located within the Roman small town at Sandy and a series of linear boundary features, with postholes cut into their bases, was identified in all three of the evaluation trenches. Pottery collected from their fills demonstrates that these features were in use from at least the immediate post-Conquest period to the 3rd / 4th century AD. No evidence for post-Roman or medieval activity was present. |
