Abstract:		 As the result of a condition on the planning permission for the construction of six new dwellings, with associated car parking and access, on land to the rear of 109-113 High Street, Henlow, Bedfordshire, the Heritage Network was commissioned by the developer to undertake a programme of archaeological investigation. Two stages of fieldwork were undertaken. The first consisted of an archaeological evaluation. Within the seven trial trenches a limited number of features were identified, comprising a pit containing pottery of 10th - 11th century date, an undated pit or tree bole, an undated curvilinear feature and a post-medieval hedge line. As a result of these findings, an open area excavation, focusing on the 10th - 11th century pit, was requested by the LPA. Within this area, further archaeological features were recorded. The highly truncated remains of two curvilinear features, interpreted as drip gullies surrounding roundhouses, were excavated and recorded. Their fills included significant quantities of mid 1st century BC pottery. Further pits containing pottery of a similar date were also recorded, as well as a number of undated pits which may originally have been dug for gravel extraction. A series of linear features was also investigated. Due to their irregular nature in both plan and section, and their very clean fills, it has been suggested that they could have been formed by periglacial activity.
