Abstract: |
Albion Archaeology was commissioned to carry out an archaeological evaluation in support of a planning application for the erection of nine residential dwellings with associated landscaping and parking at Land to the Rear of 267-277 London Road, Bedford. Archaeological trial trenching took place when three trenches were excavated. Trenches 2 and 3 were devoid of archaeological features, but Trench 1 revealed features dating from the Romano-British and modern periods. Romano-British remains comprised two parallel gullies, dated by pottery. They were c.1m apart and on a broadly north-east to south-west alignment, defining part of a field system to the periphery of Roman kilns that have been discovered c.100m to the east at Kingsbrook School. |
