SNN103154 - An Archaeological Desk-Based Assessment of the Radstone Technology Site, Towcester, Northamptonshire

Prior to development of the site by David Wilson Estates a desk-based assessment was carried out. The proposed development lies in the south-west of Towcester where the line of the Roman town’s defensive ditch may cross the east part of Block B (to the east of the site). If such features are present they would be of regional importance. Block A has evidence of Roman occupation and tow burials within its boundaries and the accepted alignment of the major Roman Alchester Road also passes across the south-east ends of both Block A and Block B.
