Abstract/Summary

Archaeological evaluation comprising trial excavation and building recording was carried out on land at Southbridge, Northampton. The excavations revealed considerable destruction by nineteenth century foundations and drains but no medieval layers. Any medieval or earlier archaeology that may survive must be at a depth which will be unaffected by the proposed development. Three buildings, The Granary, a Grade II listed structure, Transhipment Sheds and the Railway Office building were recorded prior to their re-development or demolition.
