Abstract/Summary

Detailed geophysical prospection and selective trial excavation were carried out by Northamptonshire Archaeology for Pioneer Aggregates (UK) Ltd in July-August 1995 on land to the south of Hardwater Road, Wollaston, Northamptonshire. A previous assessment had shown the area to contain the remains of Iron Age and Roman settlement, with associated field-systems. The second stage of fieldwork aimed at enhancing the existing cropmark evidence and verifying the depth and state of preservation of associated archaeological deposits.
