Abstract/Summary

Detailed geophysical survey has been undertaken on a total length of 3.5 km along the proposed route of the A6 Rothwell and Desborough bypass. The work, undertaken in areas not previously subject to detailed geophysical survey, has resulted in the discovery of three additional sites of archaeological interest. These comprise; an enclosure with associated ring ditches (Site 13), an area of possible industrial activity (Site 14) associated with the previously discovered Iron Age Site 9, and a pattern of enclosures with a pit alignment (Site 15). This report provides a summary of the finding from all three sites.
