Abstract
An archaeological watching brief and excavation was undertaken by a team from Cambridge Archaeological Unit on behalf of Hanson Aggregates PLC. on a 7.93ha site at Baston No. 1 Quarry. The excavation revealed field systems of Middle Bronze Age date, in addition to pits, wellls and postholes with complimentary domestic debris. The remains of the two ring ditches, associated cremations and an inhumation provided an insight to the cominity of the Bronze Age people and how they buried their dead and placed the site in context in the surrounding landscape.
