Abstract: |
Evidence of archaeological sites and finds of pre-Roman and Roman date in the Buckworth area was quite limited, but it was noted that earlier features sealed beneath ridge and furrow field systems had been discovered in this area of Cambridgeshire. An air photograph assessment indicated that the study area was unresponsive, but its close environs contained extensive evidence for the shrunken medieval village of Buckworth. Available evidence suggested that the southern part of the assessment area had been open ground for at least the last 150 years and that the northern part of it was occupied by gardens and cottages from at least the 17th century. Archaeological evaluation of the area had the potential to contribute to our knowledge of the shape and location of the settlement in Saxon times; and to define the westward extent of the shrunken medieval village of Buckworth.
