6 Rectory Road, Bluntisham

History of 6 Rectory Road Bluntisham

Excavation were carried out here by Northamptonshire Archaeology in 2004.

https://archaeologydataservice.ac.uk/library/browse/details.xhtml?recordId=3200826

Pottery from the late Iron Age and some early Roman pottery was found. A dog and goose were found buried together. This seems to be evidence of a Celtic-based ritual involving offering and sacrifice.
