Abstract: |
In November 2012 Archaeological Solutions Limited (AS) carried out an archaeological trial trench evaluation on land at Elliott Road, March, Cambridgeshire (TL 4045 9715). The evaluation was undertaken in advance of the proposed construction of a new residential development and ancillary works. The majority of features identified during the evaluation were present on the western side of the site (Trs. 1- 4). These features, principally pits and ditches, were post-medieval or early modern. The ditches broadly aligned N/S (F1003 (Tr.1), F1028 (Tr.2), F1020 (Tr.7) and F1030 (Tr.11)) correlate with the boundary ditches recorded on the early maps. Discrete Early Bronze Age features (a pit and post holes) were recorded along the length of Trench 5, and an Early Bronze Age pottery sherd was found in Ditch F1010 (Tr.1). Two residual medieval (13th - 15th century) pottery sherds were found in Ditch F1020 (Tr.7) and Ditch F1028 (Tr.2). |
