Abstract:
Between 12th May and 4th July 2016 Cotswold Oxford Pre-Construct Archaeology (COPA) carried out an a trenched evaluation on ten plots of arable farmland, as part of the early works programme on the A14 Cambridge to Huntingdon Improvement Scheme. The evaluation comprised the excavation of 122 trenches that primarily targeted cropmarks and geophysical survey results. The northern end of this phase of archaeological works was located at Matcham's Bridge, in the parish of Alconbury (TL 1920 7453), while the eastern end was located to the north of Bar Hill, in the parish of Oakington and Westwick (TL 3891 6388). In general, the results from the evaluation demonstrate a clear bias for archaeological remains to be present on sands and gravels of the River Terrace Deposits (Plots 1, 24, 31, 28, 73 and 76) and to be absent - other than furrows and recent field boundaries - on Mudstone deposits (Plots 107 and 130) and the heavy clays comprising the Diamicton Formation (Plots 67 and 69).
