Abstract: |
In response to a condition on the planning permission for four new dwellings to the rear of 44 - 48 Shephall Green, Stevenage, the Heritage Network was commissioned by the owner to undertake archaeological monitoring of the development groundworks. This represents the second phase of fieldwork on the site. A previous archaeological evaluation had demonstrated the presence of an undated linear feature and a modern backfilled pond. The groundworks for the present project revealed more of both features previously recorded. The ditch may be pre-medieval on the basis of its alignment, although no dating material was recovered from its fill; and the pond, which is shown on the Ordnance Survey map of 1881, was backfilled with modern material but is likely to have post-medieval or earlier origins. However, no finds pre-dating the modern period were recovered from within the pond fill during the present project. |
