Abstract: |
Albion Archaeology was commissioned , to undertake an archaeological evaluation in relation to development of land to the east of Station Road, Long Buckby, Northamptonshire. The archaeological field evaluation, which comprised geophysical survey and trial trenching. The geophysical survey was undertaken in 2012 by Allen Archaeology Limited. It revealed a series of anomalies mainly located in the central and upper parts of the slope. Albion Archaeology formulated the Written Scheme of Investigation and trial trench strategy which comprised 10 trenches. In summary, the evaluation revealed a concentration of Roman features, focussed on the upper slope in the central part of the site. Traces of the medieval and post-medieval agricultural landscape are defined by a small number of cultivation furrows and boundaries respectively, which extend intermittently across the area. These have limited archaeological value and are of local significance only. |
