Full Description

{1} Yardley Hastings is important for the standing and buried remains of its medieval manor house and also for the archaeological evidence of the pre conquest estate centre of the Earl of Northampton. However the village is heavily built up and there is very limited potential for archaeological evidence to contribute significantly to the understanding of commercial activity in the settlement in the 14th century. The documentary record also appears to hold only very limited potential in this regard. Neither is the site of the medieval market is not clearly identifiable within the village plan. The site was not therefore examined in detail in the EUS. It is however possible that in the archaeological instigations conducted to record the Saxon evidence from the village that some evidence related to the commercial activity in the settlement will be forthcoming.

{2} Possibly not taken forward to Stage 2 survey and assessment.
