Abstract:
From June to August 2016, Albion Archaeology carried out an archaeological excavation in advance of residential development on the southern edge of Soham, Cambridgeshire . The work had been requested by Cambridgeshire County Council's Historic Environment Team, following the results of a trial-trench evaluation there in 2015, and was commissioned by CgMs Consulting Ltd on behalf of Hopkins Homes Ltd. This report presents the results of the excavation. The excavated area was c. 1.1ha in extent, and contained features dating from the Bronze Age to the modern era, primarily in the form of drove-ways, trackways and field boundaries. A few water-pits were also identified, as well as three Bronze Age cremation burials. Very few finds were recovered, and there is no evidence that this land was ever used for settlement, which was presumably situated on the slightly higher ground to the north, beneath the modern town of Soham.
