Abstract: |
In October 2016 Archaeological Solutions (AS) carried out an archaeological evaluation of land at 317 Hills Road, Cambridge (NGR TL 4686 5529). The evaluation was commissioned by Mr Colin Crickmore and was undertaken in compliance with a planning condition attached to planning permission for the erection of eight flats following the demolition of the existing dwelling. The site lies within an area of archaeological potential where extensive multi-period remains have been recorded during the development of Addenbrooke's Hospital and other sites. Evidence of late Bronze Age, Iron Age and early Roman activity is known from the area including an Iron Age enclosure system and the Roman road of Via Devana. The evaluation revealed no archaeological features or finds. Alluvium (0.60 -.63m thick) overlay the solid geology. Except modern foundations there was little evidence that the site was truncated and therefore had archaeological features been present, they would have been preserved. |
