Description

{1} A desk top assessment, comprising examination of the geology and topography, mapping of current land use, extraction of data from the County SMR, and assessment of historic map and field name evidence revealed no known archaeological site within a 200m corridor along the published route of the A43 Silverstone bypass although the line of the Roman road from Towcester to Alchester passes close by. Undetected sites, may, however, be present.
