Abstract:		 In March 2016 Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) carried out an archaeological evaluation on land adjacent to 6 School Lane, Little Downham, Cambridgeshire CB6 2SY (NGR TL 5250 8416). The evaluation was undertaken in compliance with a planning condition attached to planning permission for the proposed construction of four bungalows (East Cambs Ref. 15/00417/FUL). It was undertaken based on advice from Cambridgeshire County Council Historic Environment Team (CCC HET) requiring a programme of archaeological work. The site lies within the medieval and post-medieval settlement area of the village of Little Downham, 100m to the north west of the medieval parish church of St Leonard (CHER MCB14888). A medieval moated site lies to the north (CHER MCB1346) and archaeological investigations to the south west have revealed evidence of medieval/post-medieval occupation (CHER MCB17493). In addition, evidence of earlier prehistoric activity is known from this part of the village. Mesolithic occupation evidence has been recorded 40m west of the site at Downham Feoffees Primary School (CHER ECB702). The evaluation revealed two features: a post-medieval or modern pit (F1009) and an 18th/19th century ditch (F1007). The latter ran close to, and parallel to, an extant fence and hedge line suggesting the boundary has been in existence since at least the 18th/19th century. No residual finds were present.
