Abstract:
Northamptonshire Archaeology were commissioned by CgMs Consulting Ltd, acting on behalf of their clients William Davis Ltd, to undertake an archaeological trial trench evaluation on land south of Coventry Road, Broughton Astley. The works followed a geophysical survey which produced negative results apart from a disused metal water pipe. At the time of trenching the site was under pasture with upstanding ridge and furrow earthworks. The evaluation identified ditches, a possible surface and a pit which appear to relate to medieval or earlier out-field systems. The remnants of this field system continued into the medieval period with one of the ditches being superseded by a surface and then a headland. The artefacts recovered included three pieces of worked flint, single sherd of medieval pottery and a small quantity of animal bone.
