Abstract:
In December 2018 Britannia Archaeology Ltd (BA) undertook a trial trench evaluation in advance of the erection of one dwelling on land adjacent to Longview, 1 Manor Farm Barns, Cockhall Lane, Litlington, Cambridgeshire (TL 31296 42381). The evaluation was undertaken in response to a design brief issued by Cambridgeshire Historic Environment Team (CHET). The trial trenching produced a large volume of archaeological material including a substantial spread of Roman wall plaster and CBM/ceramic demolition material in the northern trench suggesting a substantial part of a villa complex must have been located on or very close to development site. Consequently, it was agreed to extend the excavation area around the northern trench (approximately 2m either side) to provide further information as to the extent and character of the Roman building deposits. In January 2018, the width of trench 2 was extended and 4 main phases of activity were identified. Phase I - Late Iron Age to c.AD60/70 Phase II - Mid to late 1st century Phase III - Mid/Late 1st - 3rd Century Phase IV - Undated This excavation was successful in identifying further outlying areas of settlement in the Litlington historic landscape. The project has not only been successful in identifying the further extent of the Romano-British settlement, adding to the information gleaned by the Wessex excavation, but it has also identified the likelihood of multiple structures, perhaps ancillary buildings for the already identified villa complex in the immediate vicinity of Longview.
