Abstract:
The monitoring of the development groundworks at 11 The Granary, Arlesey, Bedfordshire, revealed a stratigraphic sequence consisting of various layers of modern overburden directly overlying the natural. It was observed that these were deeper at the western end of the site. The lack of top- and subsoils indicates that the site has been subject to significant ground reduction. Some reduction may have occurred in the early 20th century, to level the ground for a former farm building, but the removal of all evidence for this structure from the site suggests that some further ground reduction was carried out when The Granary estate was built. The greater depth of made ground at the western end of the site may reflect the natural slope of the ground. Late 19th and 20th century OS mapping shows that until the late 20th century the site formed part of Moorlands Farm. It lay within a small yard to the north of the main farmyard until the early 20th century. Between 1901 and 1922 the site was occupied by a long narrow building range which survived until the 1990s. No remains relating to the structure that formerly occupied the site were encountered during the present works, but layers of probable demolition rubble were observed at the western end of the footings trenches.
