Abstract: |
Pre-Construct Archaeology (PCA) was commissioned by EDP on behalf of Rainier Developments Limited to undertake a program of archaeological evaluation at Land to the West of Bedford Road, Lower Stondon, Bedfordshire, SG16 6EA (NGR: TL 1606 3594). This work was commissioned as part of a condition attached to the planning permission (ref: CB/19/01681/OUT). Work took place on site from the 9th to the 18th of December 2019. The evaluation identified a concentration of Later Iron Age features, predominantly ditches and pits, located in the western half of the site. The ditches had previously been identified as cropmarks and geophysical anomalies, before being confirmed during the evaluation. These ditches formed a number of small north-east to south-west by north-west to south-east aligned rectilinear and circular enclosures. |
