Abstract/Summary

An archaeological field evaluation and watching brief was undertaken by the University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) on land adjacent to Skew Bridge Ski Slope, Northampton Road, Rushden, Northamptonshire between the 23rd and 26th of September 2014. The work was carried out as a response to a planning application to develop the former ski slope and surrounding land and was designed to provide archaeological information in advance of the development work. Nine 30m by 1.8m trenches were specified in the original Written Scheme of Investigation (WSI), however a number of unforeseen site constraints resulted in some slightly shorter trenches being excavated. Undisturbed natural substratum was observed in all of the trenches but no archaeological features or deposits were present. The report will be archived under temporary accession number NHRUSHLK2014
