Abstract:
A suite of techniques was used to evaluate the area, comprising fieldwalking, geophysical survey and observation of geo-technical test-pits. The techniques employed in this evaluation have significantly advanced our knowledge of the archaeological resource within the area and the wider landscape. Fieldwalking and geophysical survey led to the identification of two Heritage Assets (HA). These comprise the hitherto unknown remains of two groups of linear field systems and former route-ways, in the north and the centre of the area. The appearance of elements of HA1 on the Toddington Tithe map of 1797 and the recovery of 16th-17th century pottery and medieval/post-medieval ceramic building material from surrounding plough soil suggest they are likely to date from the early post-medieval period. Elements of the remains identified in HA2 match with the parish boundary and an associated post-medieval route-way shown on the Houghton Regis Estate map of 1762. The remains within HA2 are also likely to be broadly early post-medieval in date. Observation of geo-technical test-pits revealed that the sequence of soils, derived from Chalk, was largely uniform across the site.
