Abstract: |
Planning permission has been granted by Central Bedfordshire Council for the change of use of a barn to create a two bedroom dwelling with associated landscaping and parking and a single-story extension on land adjacent to Pedley Farm, Grange Street, Clifton, Bedfordshire. Albion Archaeology was commissioned by Campbell Buchanan to undertake the archaeological works. The ground reduction within the Barn revealed a substantial ditch and two gullies of early medieval (12th to 14th century) date. The dark colour of the deposits within the larger ditch, and the relatively high amounts of pottery contained in it, suggests the presence of domestic settlement activity. Features of post medieval and modern date were also identified within the barn. These comprised an elongated sub-rectangular pit, a semi circular pit and three post holes. |
