Abstract:
Headland Archaeology conducted an evaluation on land proposed for development at Broadmead Road, Stewartby in Bedfordshire, in order to provide further information on its archaeological potential. The work was commissioned by O and H Properties. A total of one hundred and four trenches were excavated within the Development Area (DA) which straddles land in both Bedford Borough and Central Bedfordshire. Investigations revealed fairly limited archaeological remains given the size of the area investigated and a total of 60 trenches were blank. Sub-surface remains were revealed in 44 trenches. However of these, 32 trenches contained natural features, tree throws, modern features/disturbance, furrows and undated remains. Overall, 12 trenches revealed datable remains of archaeological significance. Investigations largely revealed prehistoric features of early Iron Age and late Iron Age date, including an area of settlement remains in the southern part of the DA. Evidence for medieval agricultural activity was also identified in the northern part of the DA. Remains associated with agriculture are considered to be of local significance, whilst settlement remains are considered to be of regional significance.
