Abstract:		 Morgan Sindall plc is gathering baseline information in support of a planning application for the development of a new school building, all-weather pitch and car park at Etonbury Academy off Stotfold Road, Arlesey, Bedfordshire. Albion Archaeology was commissioned to undertake a geophysical survey and a trial-trench evaluation. Seven trial trenches were positioned to test geophysical anomalies and apparently blank areas. Four of these trenches revealed archaeological features, with evidence of two separate Iron Age settlements in the field to the east of the Academy. Not all of the identified archaeological features could be dated, but those features that did produce dating evidence appear uniformly to be either early-middle or middle Iron Age. The evidence recovered of Iron Age settlement has moderate to high potential to contribute to regional research objectives relating to the characterisation of rural settlement and settlement patterns in this period. No evidence was found of archaeological remains within the evaluated part of the grounds of Etonbury Academy, although the equal lack of evidence for quarrying activity indicates the potential for undiscovered remains to exist beyond the confines of the evaluation trench.
