Abstract: |
Bedford Borough Council granted planning permission for change of use to construction plant storage and sales yard, erection of workshop/office/sales reception/staff amenity facilities building and associated parking, hardstanding, landscaping and infrastructure on Land west of Brook Farm Cottages, Great North Road, Chawston. The first stage of the archaeological mitigation strategy was trial trenching. A total of four features were dated to the post-medieval to modern period. There was a possible Roman ditch in Trench 4 and a wide, shallow feature in Trench 8 produced prehistoric worked flint. In both cases the small quantities of abraded artefactual material cannot provide reliable dating for the feature - they could be residual in later features. The rest of the features were undated. |
