Abstract: |
David Coles Architects Ltd, submitted a reserved matters planning application commercial and residential mixed used development. Albion Archaeology was commissioned undertake the required archaeological works. It became clear that a significant portion of the development area had already been investigated as part of the earlier phases of the Land West of Bedford project The site was largely stripped to a depth of c.400mm and was then 'stoned-up' prior to the excavation of the foundation trenches and remaining services. As part of the groundworks, a continuous watching brief was maintained on the southernmost part No archaeological features of deposits were present within the limited extent of the areas that were monitored. Although the area had largely been protected under an elevated headland, and subsequently a footpath, there was no evidence to suggest that the development area had been occupied in the past. |
