Abstract:		 In March 2014 Archaeological Solutions Limited (AS) carried out an archaeological trial trench evaluation on land off Alibone Close, Moulton, Northamptonshire (NGR SP 7864 6640). The evaluation was required by Northamptonshire County Council in compliance with a planning condition on approval to build 16 new bungalow dwellings on the site (Daventry DC Approval Red: DA/2013/0952). The site lies in close proximity to the historic core of Moulton which was recorded at Domesday and, therefore, can be seen to have Saxon origins. Demonstrating as much are stone slabs and a fragment of a cross present in the churchyard of the nearby Church of St Peter and St Paul (ENN8166;4538/1/0) and the recovery of Saxon pottery, along with some medieval pottery, during construction works 250m to the west during the 1960s. The medieval church (DNN2712; 4538/1) and its attendant churchyard (ENN101117; 4538/1/2) are located 350m to the north-west of the site. Two dated archaeological features were revealed: Pits F1010 and F1012 (Trench 3). The dating evidence is tentative being based on abraded Anglo-Saxon sherds; one from Pit F1012 and two from Pit F1010. Animal bone was also found within these pits. The pits were located adjacent to the eastern boundary of the site. Undated features largely comprise pits with Trenches 1 (F1003), 4 (F1024, F1026, F1028, F1030, and F1032) and 6 (F1017). An undated ditch was recorded in Trench 3 (F1014).
