Abstract:		 Central Bedfordshire Council has granted planning permission for the erection of a two-storey steel-frame building with outer perimeter. As the development lies in an archaeologically sensitive area, a condition requiring a programme of archaeological investigation was attached to the planning permission. Albion Archaeology was commissioned to carry out the archaeological works. Archaeological monitoring of construction works with the potential to impact on archaeological remains was carried out . The groundworks consisted of the mechanical excavation of foundation trenches, up to 1.3m deep, for the new building. The observed soil profile (from the top) consisted of: tarmac; modern levelling layers; re-deposited clay and the undisturbed clay geology. No archaeological features or deposits were identified during monitoring of the foundation trenches or from scanning of the spoil heaps. It is likely that the area was stripped of topsoil and levelled prior to the construction of the existing tarmac court. This process may have removed any shallow archaeological features present within the development area. However, the relatively shallow depth of the disturbed ground would suggest that the lower part of any larger features would probably have survived this truncation. The absence of such features, or any artefacts, suggests that the development area is located beyond the limit of the medieval settlement at Thorncote Green.
