Description

Evaluation of a plot adjacent to Home Farm, Church Way, Whittlebury shows that there is some localised potential for the survival of probable Iron Age archaeology. While one area of the site has been shown to contain buried features cut into the natural geology, another area appears to be devoid of remains, while a third has been quarried away between the 16th and 19th centuries. It presents a resource which is sparse, denuded in part, and may be peripheral to the occupation focus suggested by nearby geophysical survey between 2000 and 2003. Information from OASIS Online Form.
