Description

Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by CgMs Consulting to carry out an archaeological evaluation comprising 38 trenches on land at Park Mill Farm, Princes Risborough. The Site is proposed for residential development and comprises approximately 21ha of land to the west of Princes Risborough centred on NGR 480150 203680.
The majority of trenches contained little or no remains of archaeological interest. However, a concentration of features, including pits, postholes and ditches containing Early to Middle Iron Age pottery, was found in the southern part of the evaluation area. The remains suggest that there is a focus of late prehistoric settlement activity in this part of the Site.
