Abstract:		 Central Bedfordshire Council granted planning permission for the erection of three 3-bedroom dwellings and a garage block on land adjacent to The Green Man PH, High Street, Lidlington. Stage 1 of the archaeological evaluation comprised three 2m-wide trenches were excavated, one measuring 20m in length, one measuring 10m in length and one shortened from 10m to c.9m in length due to on-site constraints. Evidence of extensive landscaping during the modern period was revealed. Deep modern deposits along the north-east side of the site indicate the ground was raised to form a level area. The large amount of building material present within these layers is suggestive of demolished buildings in the area, although no in-situ building remains were present. The natural geology does not appear to have been subject to extensive truncation, suggesting any archaeological remains at that level would have survived beneath the modern levelling layers; however, no features pre-dating the post-medieval period were revealed. The only pre-modern features identified were two drainage ditches and a soakaway, all date to the post-medieval/early modern period and are of low archaeological significance.
