SNN110502 - Land off Guilsborough Road and Northampton Road, West Haddon, Northamptonshire: Archaeological excavation, recording, analysis and publication

The mitigation works largely confirmed the results of the trial trench evaluation. An Iron Age boundary/enclosure ditch was revealed. Evidence of possible weathered bank material was encountered in one of the excavated segments. This deposit also produced a residual flint core of possible late Neolithic date, indicating early prehistoric activity in the vicinity. The pit that had produced middle Iron Age pottery during the trial trenching was fully excavated during the mitigation works, although no additional dating evidence was obtained. A number of undated features- three postholes and an isolated small pit-may be associated with activity in the Iron Age period.
