Abstract: |
In August 2012 Archaeological Solutions (AS) carried an archaeological evaluation on Broughton Trust Land south of the A41 Aston Clinton Road, Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire (NGR SP 8477 1290). The evaluation was commissioned by Milliken and Company on behalf of the Broughton Farming Partnership and was undertaken prior to the determination of a planning application to be submitted for a new residential development on the site (Aylesbury Vale District Council). The earliest pottery in the assemblage derived from the evaluation comprises three residual sherds (14g) of prehistoric fabric found in association with Roman sherds, in Drainage Pipe F1006 (Tr.5). The three sherds appear to be from a single vessel possibly of early Iron Age date, although earlier prehistoric origins cannot be discounted (Pottery Report below). The earliest features were Roman, specifically 1st - early 2nd century. Many of the features contained just a few sherds (2 - 7 sherds) but Ditch F1035 (Tr.6) contained 125 sherds. The Roman features occurred in Trenches 5, 6 and 8, approximately in the centre of the site and they comprised pits and ditches. Medieval furrows were recorded in all of the trenches except Trenches 10 and 13. A sample were excavated in Trenches 4 and 5 (F1026 and F1019). The remaining features were undated, post-medieval and modern. The undated features were present across the site (Trenches 2 - 6 and 12) and not necessarily co-incident with the Roman archaeology). |
