Description

Site code: ASR14. In April 2014, an archaeological excavation was carried out by MOLA, on land at Stoke Road, Ashton, Northamptonshire. The works identified a ditch dating to the late 1st century AD as well as a ditch dating between the 11th and 14th centuries, contemporary with the moated manor to the north. Part of a recently backfilled post-medieval pond was present in the north-east of the excavation area. The site produced a small pottery assemblage. Information from OASIS Online Form.
