Abstract:
During July 2004 Archaeological Solutions Ltd conducted an archaeological excavation on land, at Scotts Close, Hilton, Cambridgeshire (NGR TL 2900 6635). This followed an archaeological evaluation and desk-based assessment carried out by AS in October and November 2001. The evaluation had revealed a large number of archaeological features on the site, principally dating to the Romano-British and the late Saxon/ early medieval periods. The presence of Roman activity within the medieval core of the village fitted with a pattern of post Roman continuity of occupation noted in a number of other Huntingdonshire villages. The presence of late Saxon/ early medieval pottery provided a further indication of an early date for the medieval settlement at Hilton, pre-dating the 12th century church of St Mary Magdalene. The open area excavation has revealed two sets of boundary ditches, one post dating the other and being re-cut and added to over time. A large number of pits of various sizes were also identified, as well as a grave pit containing a disarticulated human skeleton. Seven Romano-British pits were identified, but the majority of the features dated from the late Saxon to the medieval periods.
