Abstract: |
In May 2007 Archaeological Solutions conducted an archaeological trial trench evaluation of land at 750-754 Newmarket Road, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire (NGR TL 4855 5918) in advance of proposed residential development. 750 - 754 Newmarket Road is situated to the north-east of Cambridge, in the parish of Teversham. The site lies to the south of Newmarket Road (A1303), with Cambridge Airport to the south and east of the site. The western boundary of the site is formed by a residential development. The site itself is currently occupied by two semi-detached houses, three garages and two sheds. Another house is located in the north-west portion of the site. There is evidence of Iron Age and Roman activity to the north and east of the site, while Anglo-Saxon remains have been discovered along Newmarket Road, to the north-west. The archaeological evaluation found a post-medieval gully containing a residual sherd of medieval pottery and a modern soak-away and drain. No Iron Age or Roman features were identified. |
