Abstract: |
Bedford Borough Council granted planning permission for single-storey side extensions, front porch and external alterations at 58 Park Road, Stevington, Bedford, MK43 7QG. The permitted development area was located in an area of archaeological interest. For this reason, the Historic Environment Team advised that a condition (no. 3) should be attached to the permission. They advised that the archaeological mitigation strategy should comprise a programme of archaeological observation, investigation, recording, analysis and publication. Albion Archaeology was commissioned to prepare a Written Scheme of Investigation and to carry out the archaeological works. Despite the site's potential for Roman or medieval remains, no archaeological features or deposits earlier than the modern period (post-1750) were present within the footprint of either extension. The topsoil layer from the north-east extension contained a moderate amount of 19th-century artefacts and some residual 17th¬-18th-century pottery. The topsoil layer from the south-west extension contained sparse 19th-20th-century artefacts. |
