Abstract:
On 23rd and 31st May 2016 Oxford Archaeology East excavated three evaluation trenches on the proposed new road-way and car park at the Walter Gidney Pavilion, Soham, Cambridgeshire (TL 5918 7321). Several phases of land use were identified in two of the trenches. Possible Romano-British activity was represented by a single ditch in Trench 2. Cess-like material within the ditch fill suggests it was close to or within an area of habitation. The Romano-British ditch was truncated by two Middle Saxon (c. 650 - 850 AD) ditches, that produced pottery, animal bone, fired clay and shell. A further Middle Saxon ditch was truncated by a Large Middle Saxon pit in Trench 3. All the archaeological deposits were sealed by a deep buried garden soil (measuring 0.3 - 0.6m thick), attributed to landscaping of the recreation ground in the early 1900s. A 1926 silver six pence was recovered from the buried garden soil.
