Abstract:		 In November and December 2011, Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) carried out archaeological monitoring and recording during the groundworks for new drainage at All Saints Church, Newmarket Road, Kirtling, Cambridgeshire (NGR TL 6868 5764). The monitoring was undertaken to ensure compliance with a planning condition attached to planning approval for the works (East Cambs planning ref. 11/00004/FUL). Kirtling is located close to the line of the pre-Roman trackway, the Icknield Way, however there is no known evidence for settlement of this date in the village. It is recorded as a parish in the late Saxon period. Kirtling is listed in the Domesday book and is known to have been owned by King Harold prior to the Norman Conquest, suggesting that it may have been the estate minster for royal estates along the East Cambridgeshire border. The fabric of All Saints Church (HER No. DCB528) is of 12th century and later in date. The church is directly adjacent to Kirtling Tower, an extant tower associated with a now demolished early medieval moated manor site (HER no. DCB74). The monitoring identified six inhumations of unknown date, all buried in an extended, supine position in east/west aligned graves. One of the graves contained evidence for a coffin.
