Abstract:		 Oxford Archaeology East carried out an archaeological trench evaluation on land off Bury Dyke, Crick, Northamptonshire in support of an outline planning application for residential development. The site was seen to contain upstanding earthworks believed to relate to the medieval period. Archaeological features cut into the natural land surface were encountered within all seven of the trenches. Many of the sub-surface features did not appear to related to the earthworks, apart from in the area of the hollow way at the southern end of Trench 2. The majority of the site was sealed by two deep subsoil deposits, implying that there could be a number of phases of activity to the site. Whilst no datable finds were retrieved from either subsoil layer, a single feature was seen to be cutting through the lower subsoil deposit. The majority of the ditches across the site run parallel with or perpendicular to boundaries still in existence today, with a clear bias toward a north-northwest to south-southeast alignment. This orientation is parallel with the development boundary. Overall it can be said that the land off Bury Dyke, Crick contains archaeological remains dating from the 11th to 12th centuries. A background scatter of earlier pottery was collected during the archaeological works, this consisted of very low numbers of Bronze Age, Iron Age and Roman pottery along with a slightly larger assemblage of Anglo-Saxon pottery. A lack of securely datable finds from the feature fills means that there is a potential for some of the undated features to be earlier in date, however at present this cannot be confirmed.
