This collection comprises site data (images and CAD) from an archaeological evaluation of land to the north of the Night Owl Truck Stop, Watling Street (A5), Northamptonshire, In November 2015, undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology. The evaluation, which was commissioned by RPS on behalf of Eddie Stobart Logistics Ltd, was undertaken to partially address a planning condition for the expansion of the truck-stop parking area. The evaluation demonstrated the presence of Romano-British activity in the western half of the development area, immediately adjacent to Watling Street. This includes late 1st-2nd century boundary ditches relating to the organisation of the landscape following the construction of Watling Street, followed by a 2nd-4th century enclosure, with internal features, containing evidence for domestic activity.
