Abstract: |
Planning permissionwas granted in 2008 by Mid Bedfordshire District Authority (now Central Bedfordshire Council) for the construction of eleven new houses at Pedley Lane, Clifton. Because the proposed development lies within an area of archaeological sensitivity, a condition (16) was attached to the planning permission requiring the implementation of a programme of archaeological work. This programme included the undertaking of an archaeological trial trench evaluation. However, the trial trench evaluation demonstrated that no significant archaeological remains. The remains present consisted of an undated gully, probably associated with a modern field boundary or a drainage ditch; several modern field drains; and the remains of a possible building or yard surface in the northern part of the site. As the area is still shown as an empty field on the enclosure map of 1832, it is likely that this structure either dates to the late 19th century or 20th century when agricultural buildings began to be established on the site. |
