Abstract:		 In February and March 2014 Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) conducted an archaeological evaluation at Chequers Court Shopping Centre, Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire PE29 3LJ (NGR TL 2400 7184). The evaluation was conducted in compliance with a planning condition attached to planning approval for the proposed construction of a new retail development (new supermarket, 7 retail units, restaurant/café and 2 kiosks) following the demolition of existing buildings (Hunts District Council Ref. 1100979FUL), based on the advice of Cambridgeshire County Council Historic Environment Team. The site is situated to the immediate north-east of the town's historic core and within 60m of the High Street. It lies on the terrace gravels of the Ouse, within an area that has revealed archaeological remains of Saxon, medieval and post-medieval date. Recent investigations in advance of the construction of a new multi-storey car park close by to the north east have revealed evidence of mid to late Saxon activity, evidence of medieval drainage and cultivation and structures of 17th century date (Historic Environment Record HER ECB3550 and 3912). Despite extensive modern intervention the evaluation revealed medieval (12th - 14th century) and post-medieval pits, specifically within Test Pits 1, 2 and 6.
