Author/Originator
Date/Year 2014

Abstract/Summary

An archaeological watching brief was undertaken on behalf of Heritage Collective LLP during a programme of ground investigation associated with the installation of the M1 J18 Wind Turbines. The work took place in the land adjacent to Junction 18 of the M1 Motorway in Northamptonshire between June - August 2014. The work involved the stripping of topsoil, which was monitored by an archaeologist. A possible section of a Roman road was unearthed in the central area of the main access road. No further archaeological deposits or finds were disturbed by the groundworks. The archive will be held by the University of Leicester Archaeological Services under the Site Code NH.DIRFT.2014 until a suitable final storage facility has been agreed with Northamptonshire County Council.
