Abstract: |
Archaeological trial excavations were carried out by Northamptonshire Archaeology at Egerton Close, Brackley, Northamptonshire. An undated ditch containing animal bone was overlain by a deposit that is likely to have been former topsoil, which has since been buried. Three further ditches on different alignments cut the buried soil, and are dated by tile to after the 14th century, with one ditch clearly of 19th century date. Residual Roman and medieval finds were also recovered alongside quantities of animal bone. In addition, a post-medieval limestone rubble wall was cut into the buried soil, with its rubble collapse lying on the buried soil. All of these deposits lay below an accumulation of topsoil, formed from leaf litter and garden soil. |
