Abstract: |
Conditional planning permission was granted by Bedford Borough Council for the erection of a detached dwelling on land adjacent to 85 High Street, Harrold,. On the basis of an earlier evaluation a recommendation was made for full archaeological excavation of the site prior to any development groundworks taking place. It was carried out at a stage where the construction of the new house and associated services were nearing completion. .The majority of activity on site proved to be modern. Two pits containing modern material were also excavated. Two NW-SE aligned linear features were identified, both of which contained fragments of modern brick and tile. A modern posthole was cut through the top of one of the ditches. A single undated posthole may corresponds with a 12th-century pit that was excavated as part of the evaluation (Northamptonshire Archaeology, 2011). |
