Description

{1} In March 2004, an archaeological evaluation was undertaken at 21 St James' Road, Northampton. Three trenches and two test-pits excavated in advance of redevelopment. The site was close to the west of the historic core of Northampton, close to the river Nene and had the potential to reveal evidence for the development of the course of the river, medieval settlement and a channel shown on Speed's map of Northampton (1610). No medieval remains were found, neither was there any evidence for the channel as shown on Speed's map of 1610; 19th-century activity only was recorded. Site code: NJR04.
