Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was carried out at the College of West Anglia, Elm High Road, Wisbech between 6th - 11th March 2008. This consisted of the digging of twelve 4m2 test pits over an area of approx. 5.85 hectares, most of this on agricultural land due for development. No archaeology apart from a single un-dated east-west drainage ditch was found; the latter possibly a medieval or post-medieval ditch connected with land reclamation. The roddon creek silts of the Terrington Beds were proved in all the test pits, suggesting that in Iron Age-Roman times this area was in the intertidal zone.
