Abstract:
Between March 2015 and July 2018, Cotswold Archaeology carried out a programme of archaeological works, comprising an archaeological watching brief at the site of the former Berkhamsted Police Station and Berkhamsted Library, on the corner of High Street and Kings Road, Berkhamsted, Hertfordshire. Archaeological interest in the site is derived from its location within the historic core of Berkhamsted, within an area of former burgage plots. Previous archaeological investigations carried out within the site and surrounding burgage plots revealed features indicative of medieval occupation, including pits, post-holes and metal-working remains. Recovered artefactual evidence, from pits located within the southwestern and north-eastern parts of the site, suggests that initial settlement occurred within the site from the 11th century to 13th century onwards. Further pits attest to the continuing post-medieval and modern use of the site. The site has undergone horizontal truncation to the level of the natural geological substrate across the entirety of the site, so that the cut archaeological features were sealed directly by modern deposits
