Abstract

During July and August 2012 Oxford Archaeology East was commissioned by Anglian Water to carry out an Archaeological Observation, Investigation and recording on land at the Dunton Water Treatment Works, Cambridge Road, Dunton, Bedfordshire TL 24194476.
Evidence of Prehistoric settlement activity was recorded at the site in the form of ditches and pits containing Late Bronze Age and Middle Iron Age pottery. The results of the investigation have provided the first dating evidence of known cropmark enclosures revealed from aerial photography and suggest an earlier date for these remains, than had previously been considered.
