Abstract:
In order to determine the archaeological risk posed by a proposal to construct new housing on land to the rear of Braybrookes Drive, Potten, Bedfordshire, the Heritage Network was commissioned by the developer to undertake a programme of archaeological investigation. A previous archaeological evaluation on the site, carried out by the Heritage Network, demonstrated the survival of a low density of features dating to the late medieval/early post-medieval period. These were located at the western end, in Plot 2 of the new development. A further stage of mitigation concentrated on the garage block to Plot 2 was undertaken. This revealed a pit complex which contained at least five intercutting pits. The pits yielded pottery and tile dating to the late medieval/early post medieval period. A significant amount of horncore was also recovered, horncore is a common waste product of tanning. A former Tan yard, Braybrooks Tannery, was located on the adjacent plot (HER 7898)
