Abstract:
From 17th October to 17th November 2017 Britannia Archaeology Ltd (BA) undertook a trial trench evaluation at Land to the Rear of 130 Middlewatch, Swavesey, Cambridgeshire (TL 3617 6793). The archaeological background for the site suggested that there was a low potential for features and finds relating to the prehistoric period, a moderate potential for Romano-British archaeology, and a high potential for features and finds relating to the medieval period. The evaluation only encountered archaeological features in trenches 6, 12, 13, and 14 which (with the exception of trench 6) were located on the eastern side of the site closest to the road. The archaeology can be separated into four main phases of activity. Overall the evaluation was successful in location, extent, date, character of the archaeology at Land to the Rear 130 Middlewatch. The trenches revealed a concentration of medieval activity at the eastern end of the site which almost certainly extends all the way to the road (Middlewatch) while the works also identified further medieval, undefined activity across the area represented through her bucket sampling undertaken. Unfortunately the environmental data was sparse however the evidence that was recovered further reinforces the likelihood that the features relate to back plot activity associated with nearby medieval dwellings near the historic core of the village.
