Abstract
Trial trenching for the tenth phase of archaeological investigation at Broom Quarry, Bedfordshire (centred TL 175 440) was undertaken by a team from Cambridge Archaeological Unit in August 2005. The work was carried out on behalf of Tarmac Southern Ltd in advance of gravel extraction. It comprised a programme of targeted trial trenching and artefact sampling over an area of 9.5 ha. It revealed a single pit of probable prehistoric origin, and Romano-British droveways and field boundaries relating to 1st-2nd century AD settlements along the edge of the River Ivel floodplain to the east.
