Abstract:
An archaeological field evaluation by trial trenching was undertaken at land south of Borderville Farm, Stamford, Lincolnshire (TF 033 085) by the University of Leicester Archaeological Services between the 1st and 15th June 2009 for Burghley House Preservation Trust. Fourteen excavated trenches were positioned to target possible features previously identified by geophysical survey and three trenches were located within the blank areas. Positive results were obtained from thirteen of the targeted trenches mostly confirming the presence of archaeological features previously suggested by the geophysical anomalies. Several features were also identified which had not been detected by the geophysics including two of the trenches in the blank areas. Primarily these features identified were pits and ditches, some of which producing dating between the Late Iron Age and early Roman periods. Also an articulated human burial was also encountered in the southeast corner of the site that may be earlier in date and may be associated with a pit alignment. The results suggest an elongated enclosure settlement with the main focus of activity extending westwards beyond the extent of the application area. The excavated sections, especially in the western part of the site have yielded domestic rubbish indicative of activities relating to a farmstead settlement. The site is clearly multi-phased, dating from the Late Iron Age but it remains unclear in what form the settlement continues into the early Roman period. The records with be deposited with The Collection: Arts and Archaeology in Lincolnshire under the site code BFST09 and museum accession number LCNCC : 2009.85.
