Abstract:		 This report describes the results of a five trench archaeological evaluation carried out by Pre-Construct Archaeology on land at Aylesborough Close, Cambridge, CB4 2HH (NGR TL 4486 6101) on the 5th January 2015 to the 6th January 2015. The archaeological work was commissioned by Keepmoat in response to a planning condition attached to the demolition of 24 and erection of 35 private and affordable residential accommodations, with associated car parking, amenity space and ancillary works. The aim of the work was to characterise the archaeological potential of the proposed development area. The evaluation identified five ditches one in Trench 3, two in Trench 4, and three in Trench 5. One of these ditches (slots [012] and [018]) was present in both Trench 3 and 5, and is likely part of a field boundary system. Trench 5 also had a ditch terminus [021] which contained no finds and was on a similar alignment to ditches [018], this too is likely to form part of an agricultural field system. Ditch [14] in Trench 4 produced a number of Roman pottery sherds. The deposit contained numerous oyster shells as well as the pottery and this may well be indicative of settlement activity somewhere in the area. However low levels of pottery and other artefacts in other features implies that the other ditches part of agricultural field systems
