Abstract:
MOLA Northampton was commissioned by Persimmon Homes Midlands to carry out a geophysical survey and archaeological trial trench evaluation on land north of Harrington Road, Rothwell, Northamptonshire prior to proposed residential development of the site. A total of 6.4ha was surveyed and thirteen trenches were excavated. A series of ditches, identified in the geophysical survey as being part of several large enclosures, were present in the northern half of the field. The activity in this area has been dated, from the ceramic evidence, broadly to the 1st century BC to the 1st century AD. An undated trackway was aligned north-east to south-west across the middle of the site. Undated quarrying was recorded at the eastern edge of the development area. Evidence for medieval ridge and furrow cultivation was present across the site and further post-medieval activity was identified at the southern edge of the area.
