Abstract: |
During April and May 2018, Cotswold Archaeology carried out an archaeological evaluation of land south of Little Horwood Road, Great Horwood, Buckinghamshire. This evaluation was undertaken in response to an archaeological planning condition attached to the planning consent for the residential development of the site. The fieldwork comprised the excavation of seven trenches. Archaeological interest in the site is derived from its location on the western edge of the village of Great Horwood, which has pre-Norman origins. The Buckinghamshire Historic Environment Record records prehistoric, Roman and Medieval sites within the immediate vicinity. A single east/west orientated ditch containing two sherds of 5th to 8th-century pottery was identified close to the southern boundary of the site. Medieval plough furrows, the remains of the open field system that once surrounded the village of Great Horwood, were encountered across the majority of the site. |
