Abstract:		 In May 2015, an archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology on land off Baldock Road, Letchworth, Hertfordshire. The work was carried out in order to fulfil a planning condition that was attached to planning consent for the construction of a power plant, with associated tanks and access on the site. The evaluation comprised the excavation of six evaluation trenches. The site lies immediately adjacent and to the south of an area where possible archaeological remains have been identified from cropmarks shown on aerial photographs. the evaluation identified archaeological features concentrated towards the southern edge of the site. The earliest feature encountered comprised a ditch containing pottery dating from the Late Bronze Age to earlier Iron Age. A further ditch containing 12th to 13th-century pottery and conforming to the orientation of the current field system was identified. An undated pit adjacent to this ditch may be contemporaneous. Other investigated features were shown to be geological in origin.
