SNN108928 - Archaeological Evaluation on Land North of Bedford Road, Yardley Hastings, Northamptonshire

Northamptonshire Archaeology undertook a geophysical survey and trial trench evaluation on land to the north of Bedford Road, Yardley Hastings. Geophysical and cartographic evidence suggest that the field was previously divided up into smaller parcels of land by ditches and/or hedge lines running north to south and east to west with a pond or quarry at their junction. Remnants of post medieval field boundaries, corresponding with field shown on historic maps, were identified in the trial trenches. A pond, backfilled during the 20th century, was also recorded. No other features of archaeological interest were discovered.
