MSA M40/A355 Burtley Woods, Buckinghamshire

In June 2000 the OAU carried out a field evaluation at Burtley Woods, Buckinghamshire on behalf of Gifford and Partners. The evaluation consisted of a geophysical survey supplemented by shovel test-pitting across the site and fieldwalking within a ploughed field in the south-west corner. Overall there was little indication of archaeological activity and the results from the test pitting were largely negative. No features were identified and the distribution of recovered finds appears to indicate only occasional low level post-medieval activity within the evaluation area.
