Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation by trial trenching was carried out by Suffolk Archaeology at land to the rear of 32 and 34 Church Lane, Isleham, Cambridgeshire. The evaluation assessed c.5% of a parcel of fallow agricultural land covering 0.7ha for archaeological evidence. The evaluation of the site showed that a topsoil was present to a maximum depth of 0.65m, a subsoil was present with a maximum depth of 0.45m and a layer was also present in Trench 2 in the central area of the Trench to a depth of 0.15m. Either the subsoil deposits or layer were seen sealing the natural geology and archaeological features on site. A total of nineteen linear features were seen within the trenches along with three pits and one hollow. Linear features were seen in all the trenches with various alignments with some showing cut relationships. Dating evidence was recovered from most linear features spanning the Roman periods with two possible earlier prehistoric ditches. It is most likely that the ditches relate to field systems, with ditches cut for drainage. The earlier Roman field system which seems to be aligned north to south and east to west. This ditch system seems to go out of use, replaced by a possible later Roman field system aligned to Church Lane running north-east to south-west.
