Abstract:
This report describes the results of archaeological excavations and monitoring carried out by Pre-Construct Archaeology on twelve sites along the route of the Hannington to Pitsford water pipeline in Northamptonshire. The pipeline contained a mid-point at Chainage 3750 NGR SP 79328 69513 to the south of the village of Holcot. The main programme of excavation and monitoring was conducted across ten weeks between the 3rd of November 2014 and the 23rd of January 2015. The archaeological work was commissioned by Anglian Water, in response to a brief issued by Lesley-Ann Mather of Northamptonshire County Council ahead of the construction of a 7.5km long water pipeline designed to increase water capacity. The aim of the work was to preserve by record any archaeological remains which would be damaged or destroyed by the construction of the new pipe and any associated groundworks. The archeological excavations revealed a series of long-lived settlement sites (SETTLEMENT SITES 1-4) spread across the whole of the pipeline excavations. Two main foci of settlement activity were identified in Areas 3 and 7. These settlement sites consisted of a range of features including structures, enclosures, boundaries and pit groups. However no direct evidence for dwellings were encountered likely due to the constraints of the pipeline excavations.
