Description
{1} An archaeological watching brief was undertaken during the removal of topsoil prior to the infilling of land to the west of runway 5/31 at Sywell Aerodrome, Sywell, Northamptonshire. For the most part, any archaeological remains would have been sealed beneath subsoil and therefore not visible during the present work. However, in small areas where the subsoil was shallow a number of exposed features were identified including a Roman oven with associated pitched stone surface, a ditch and two pits.
