SNN109424 - Land Off Banbury Lane, Middleton Cheney, Northamptonshire: Archaeological Evaluation

In April 2012, an archaeological evaluation, comprising the excavation of three trial trenches, was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology on a block of farm land to the south of Banbury Lane, Middleton Cheney, Northamptonshire. The work, which was commissioned by Barwood Developments Limited, was carried out in advance of the proposed commercial development of the site. Four ditches, which may have formed part of a pre-medieval ditch system, and a possible pit were recorded in the eastern half of the development area. Evidence was recovered from across the site for medieval or post-medieval ridge and furrow cultivation.
