Abstract/Summary

MOLA Northampton was commissioned to carry out a detailed magnetometer survey on land south of Wooldale Road, Wootton, Northampton. The survey identified a pair of Iron Age or Roman enclosures with associated roundhouses and other remains, and also a length of prehistoric pit alignment. The latter feature appears to be a continuation of an alignment previously identified to the north of the survey area. The survey also detected magnetic anomalies arising from medieval ridge and furrow earthworks.
