Abstract: |
In October 2011, Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) conducted an archaeological trial trench evaluation at the Old Maltings, Prospect Row, Cambridge (NGR TL 4563 5842). The proposed development comprises the erection of 10 residential units consisting of seven one-bedroom apartments and three studio apartments. The evaluation was required by Cambridgeshire County Council Historic Environment Team, as advisors to the Local Planning Authority, as a condition of planning approval for the development (Ref. 11/0545/FUL). The site is located to the north of Parker's Piece, Cambridge, between the historic core of the town to the west and the 19th century Mill Road cemetery to the east. There is evidence of Saxon burials at Mill Road cemetery (HER 04622). The site had moderate potential for archaeological remains, in particular medieval, post-medieval and cemetery remains. In the event no archaeological finds or features were present. Any potential archaeological deposits were likely to have been severely truncated, or removed entirely, by the laying of the underground services and the deposition of the layers of made ground. This is likely to have occurred during the extensive development of the area in the 19th century. |
