Abstract:		 Northamptonshire Archaeology carried out an archaeological evaluation on land proposed for the development of the Magna Park Business Park, Milton Keynes. The trial trenching revealed three Iron Age enclosures in two areas of the proposed development site including two overlapping sub-rectangular enclosures previously found during geophysical survey and a smaller isolated enclosure situated approximately 400m to the south-east. The pottery from the evaluation indicated that all three enclosures date to the first half of the first century AD. The ditches of the two overlapping enclosures contained generally large unabraded pottery sherds indicating a nearby settlement. This is in contrast to the isolated enclosure from which only a relatively small amount of smaller and more abraded sherds of pottery were recovered, suggesting that it was located away from the principal area of occupation and was possibly used to hold livestock. The remaining trenches were all devoid of archaeological deposits which confirmed the results of the geophysical survey.
