SNN109715 - An Archaeological Evaluation on land to the Rear of 11 Doddington Road, Earls Barton, Northamptonshire

University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) carried out an archaeological evaluation by trial trenching on land to the rear of 11 Doddington Road, Earls Barton, Northamptonshire. The work was undertaken as part of an archaeological impact assessment in advance of a proposed residential development. There was no evidence for archaeological deposits in the trenches in the northern area of the site. The evaluation did however reveal several features of prehistoric date in the south area of the area. Pottery suggests that these features are mid-Iron Age in date (4th-2nd century BC) and the evidence suggests that they may indicate a prehistoric settlement, or possibly field systems close to a settlement.
