Abstract:		 This report describes the results of an archaeological evaluation carried out by Pre-Construct Archaeology at Station Road, Foxton (NGR TL4088 4841) between 15th and 19th November 2018. The work was commissioned by Hill Residential Ltd. The aim of the work was to characterise the archaeological potential of the site prior to its redevelopment. The evaluation identified four ditches, on varying alignments, as well as part of a ring-ditch. The slight variations in ditch alignments suggest the potential for different periods, or at least differing phases, of activity. The general lack of finds evidence recovered suggest that the site is on the away from settlement, not within a settlement 'core', but the presence of a ring-ditch (in Trench 5) may contradict this assertion. A ring-ditch was identified in the western part of the site, it was not associated with rich finds assemblages suggesting the potential for it being a small barrow. However, given its small size, it could be a roundhouse on the peripheries of settlement. The ditches present on the site are all on slightly different alignments which point to the presence of different phases of activity. Some of these ditches are likely related to the ring-ditch, identified in Trench 5, being an associated system of boundaries. Two natural features, likely representing tree throws, were also identified on the site.
