Abstract: |
In response to a condition on the planning consent for the relocation of Building 420 at the Imperial War Museum, Duxford, Cambridgeshire, the Heritage Network was commissioned to undertake a programme of archaeological monitoring of the development groundworks. It was considered that the present project could provide the opportunity to investigate the origins and development of settlement at Duxford from the later prehistoric period onwards, and the development of the airfield from the First World War to the present. Modern land drains and a single modern pit were revealed. None of these could be definitely associated with the airfield. No other features, deposits or finds of archaeological significance were encountered on the site. |
