Description
Site Code - TR3793 Albion Archaeology carried out an archaeological excavation in advance of residential development of the site known as Land adjacent to The Butts, Turweston Road, Brackley, Northamptonshire. The excavated area was c.0.3ha in extent and contained features dating from the early Iron Age to the modern era. The majority of the excavated remains related to middle to late Iron Age settlement, comprising as many as six ditched enclosures, a possible roundhouse and nine post-built structures, along with storage pits, quarry pits and clusters of small pits and postholes. This evidence complements that found during previous excavations in the vicinity and adds further to an emerging picture of a richly inhabited landscape in this period, characterised by dense, unenclosed settlement clustered along a small tributary of the River Great Ouse.
