Abstract: |
In June 2013 Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) carried out archaeological evaluation on land at Woodditton Stud, Kirtling Road, Woodditton, Cambridgeshire (NGR TL 6600 5780; Figs. 1 and 2). The evaluation was commissioned by Darley Stud management Co Ltd in advance of the construction of a new sand arena to serve a new foaling unit. The evaluation was required as a condition of planning permission for the development (12/00922/FUL). The site lies within an area where many archaeological finds have been made, principally on the areas where local chalk deposits are not capped by Boulder Clays. Evidence of Bronze Age barrows and other activity, including scatters of prehistoric flintwork, indicative of occupation, are known from the NE/SW aligned chalk band which traverses the area. Crop mark evidence of likely prehistoric activity is recorded in fields to the immediate east of the proposed foaling unit site (recorded on the Cambridgeshire Historic Environment Record - HER MCB10959). The site thus has a potential for remains of prehistoric and later activity. In the event the evaluation revealed no archaeological features or finds. |
