Land off Stablebridge Road Aston Clinton Buckinghamshire

Between 14th February and 18th February 2011, Oxford Archaeology undertook a
programme of evaluation on behalf of CgMs Consulting on land off Stablebridge
Road, Aston Clinton, Buckinghamshire.
A total of 19 trenches were excavated revealing a number of archaeological
features, particularly in the north-western half of the site. The evidence suggests
that a settlement of late Iron Age/early Roman date lies within or close to the site.
Pottery recovered from a smaller number of features indicates that such activity
continued into the Roman period, at least until the 2nd century AD.
There was little evidence of activity of earlier or later periods, although a small
quantity of residual worked flint was recovered from later features. In addition, two
undated ditches in the south-western corner of the site may form part of a postmedieval
trackway recorded during an earlier watching brief at the site.
