Abstract: |
In advance of the submission of a planning application for the construction of a sunken house and detached garage on land off Drakewell Road, Bow Brickhill, the Senior Archaeological Officer for Milton Keynes Council (SAO) requested a pre-determination evaluation. The evaluation revealed a marked contrast between the two trenches. In the north, Trench 1, located at the top of a dry valley, revealed an old soil profile including a thin turf line. In contrast, Trench 2 was on the upper slope of another dry valley. This revealed a much thicker soil profile, which was more mixed, probably again due to the down-slope movement of material. The trenches revealed no evidence of sub-surface archaeological deposits. No artefacts were recovered to indicate activity in the medieval or earlier periods. |
