Abstract:		 On the 6th September 2017, Britannia Archaeology Ltd (BA) undertook a trial trench evaluation at land south-west of 41 Perry Road, Leverington, Cambridgeshire (TF 44247 11748), in advance of the residential development of the site. A total of two trenches were cut, Trench 1 measured 15.00m x 1.80m and trench 2 measured 6.00m x 2.00m. The original staggered T trench configuration was altered due to the presence of extant services and with the agreement of CCC HET Trench 2 was moved to extend from the north east side of trench 1 (beginning c.4.25m from the south east end of trench 1) on an east to west alignment measuring 6.00m x 2.00m. The archaeological background for the site suggested that there was a potential for Anglo-Saxon, medieval, and post medieval evidence on the site, as well as a fairly high potential to identify local flooding events via the stratigraphic sequence. The evaluation revealed no archaeological features, but revealed two phases of activity. The first phase related to an early local flooding event represented by alluvial layer 1002 in trench 1 which predates modern subsoil 1001. The second phase of activity related to the extant modern road on the site represented by tarmac surface layer 1004 and hardcore and rubble bedding layer 1005. Despite the high potential for Anglo-Saxon, medieval, and post-medieval activity on the site, no archaeological features were encountered. The evaluation did successfully identify evidence of an early local flooding event represented by alluvial layer 1002.
