Description
Two plots of land at Kilsby proposed for development contain a little buried archaeology under a former plot containing split earthworks of former ridge and furrow plough cultivation. This discrete survival is against a landscape otherwise largely denuded of such remains, having been ploughed out or otherwise lost, leaving the resource not fully coherent on the ground. It also lacks good documentation. Published reconstruction of such earthworks county-wide and contributory research shows that Kilsby is a parish where such remains are very much part of a denuded pre-enclosure landscape, and industry-standard assessment shows that these are not considered for preservation.
