SNN109618 - Archaeological Evaluation on Land at High Street, Naseby, Northamptonshire, January 2014

Trial trench evaluation was undertaken in advance of a planning application for development on land at the Roma Works, High Street, Naseby, as the site lay in an archaeologically sensitive area. Earthworks of medieval character are located to the west of the site and prehistoric and Roman deposits have been recorded during excavations in the vicinity. The majority of features appear to be those identified in a previous programme of geophysical survey. A single modern brick fragment was retained from a ditch, the other features were devoid of material finds. Many of the features are only datable relative to their relationship with the ridge and furrow present across much of the proposed development area.
