Abstract:		 Planning consent for a single-storey rear extension at 62A High Street, Harrold, Bedfordshire was granted by Bedford Borough Council (BBC). The development area lies within the historic core of the village, in a locally designated Area of Archaeological Interest, based on the postulated extent of medieval Harrold (HER16942). Accordingly, a condition (no. 3) was attached to the planning consent requiring the implementation of an archaeological mitigation strategy. The foundations for the new building consisted of traditional strip foundation trenches, 0.6m wide by c. 1m deep. Interior ground reduction did not extend below the level of made-ground associated with the existing conservatory. Two archaeological features that pre-dated the existing late 18th-century building were revealed within the foundation trenches - a substantial, undated, E-W aligned ditch, located beneath the foundations of the existing building, and a large pit which produced two sherds of early medieval pottery. The ditch may be the remains of an extensive early medieval boundary that is likely to extend beyond the limits of the development area. The pit may be associated with localised limestone quarrying.
