Abstract/Summary
This report presents the results of a geophysical survey and archaeological evaluation conducted in advance of a proposed development at Burcote Road, Towcester, Northamptonshire. The works comprised approximately 1ha of geomagnetic survey and the excavation of three evaluation trenches. The works were commissioned by Black Rock UK Property Fund and conducted by Archaeological Services Durham University. Possible former ridge and furrow cultivation has been identified in area 1 of the geophysical survey. The only other geophysical anomalies detected reflect fired and ferrous waste, rubble and made ground. No archaeological deposits were encountered during the archaeological evaluation.
