Abstract/Summary

An archaeological trial trench evaluation was carried out of land at Hillgay, Harbidges Lane, Long Buckby prior to a proposed residential development on the site. Three trenches were excavated. Trench 1 adjacent to Holmefield Terrace showed evidence of wall foundations, metalled surface and a later ditch. Trench 2 also identified a wall foundation. Trench 3 showed only a ditch possibly the same which was evident in trench 1. Archaeological features are thought to relate to medieval tenements along the old Cambridge-Coventry road.
