Full Description
(1) Narrow, shallow gullies similar to features 1 and 2 (SMR 9651/0/1). Approximately 1m apart.
Within the c0.30m depth of groundworks, no clearly pre-modern deposits were revealed and no artefacts recovered that might be associated with the battle of Northampton. It is concluded that the horizons investigated are largely, if not solely the product of modern activity, most likely resulting from a combination of ground works associated with canalisation of the river, flood protection and road and rail construction.
