Abstract:
This report presents the results from a programme of Archaeological Field Evaluation by Border Archaeology on behalf of Gallagher Estates in an area of land to the SW of the A5130 Newport Road relating to the proposed Newport Road Junction, which will form part of the Milton Keynes Eastern Area Expansion. This programme entailed the opening of five evaluation trenches across the land parcel to catch any underlying areas of archaeological significance. Of the five trenches excavated, only Trench 003 revealed a feature of potential archaeological interest; [3004] was interpreted as a hedgerow, although this conclusion remains circumspect due to disturbance by nearby rooting. The vast majority of the features were interpreted as rooting or suspected rooting and, as such, the finds that were recovered from these features indicate the presence of human activity in the vicinity. Later anthropogenic activity was seen by furrow [4004] in Trench 004, which was consistent with prior evaluations of ridge and furrow systems concerning medieval and post-medieval agricultural practice within the wider Milton Keynes area. No mitigation will be proposed for this site.
