Abstract:
Between 5th May and 20th September 2010, Oxford Archaeology East carried out a further phase of archaeological excavation and watching briefs at Linton Village College, Cambridgeshire. These revealed activity of Neolithic, Bronze Age, Iron Age, Roman and post-medieval date. Prehistoric remains included a Later Neolithic pit, containing Grooved Ware pottery and substantial quantities of struck flint, and a probable Early Bronze Age ring ditch. Iron Age field boundary ditches and two claylined pits containing burnt stone were also identified. A series of Roman ditches and several structural features were recorded, along with the burial of a neonate and partial remains of another. These ditches appear to mark the southern limit of the Roman settlement excavated in 2008. A postmedieval brick built building, with a rammed chalk floor, was also excavated. Four one-metre square test pits were also excavated by the students of the college, as part of a Young Roots, Heritage Lottery funded project, through the topsoil and subsoil in a garden area. These revealed pottery of Iron Age, Roman and post -medieval date along with struck flints. These finds add to those identified in previous phases of work in 2004-5 and 2008, producing a more complete picture of past land-use in Linton.
