Description
CFA Archaeology Ltd carried out an archaeological evaluation on land to the south of Knock Lane near Blisworth, Northamptonshire, centred on OS grid ref SP 7382 5223. The work, a 2% evaluation of the development area of a proposed solar farm, was undertaken on behalf of Prospect Archaeology Ltd between the 2nd and the 5th of November 2015. Seventeen trenches were located over a number of anomalies identified in a previous geophysical survey. The trenching revealed a small plough-truncated pit in the north-east of the development containing charcoal and fragments from a decorated Late Neolithic / Early Bronze Age beaker. Anomalies identified in the geophysics proved to be either geological in origin or land drains. Information from OASIS Online Form.
