Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Excavations at Church End road, Cherry Hinton, have revealed that the settlement originates in the Middle Saxon period and that during the Saxo-Norman period it was the site of a large manorial centre, which acted primarily as an agricultural centre supplying the nearby town of Cambridge for the profit of an absentee landlord, as well as fulfilling a religious role. The settlement took the form of a large `D' shaped enclosure covering just over six hectares; much of this area was sparsely occupied with evidence of droveways, timber buildings, quarry pits and wells. Other investigations have revealed a chapel with a substantial associated cemetery and fragments of stone sculpture. This manorial centre was abandoned in the medieval period, although some occupation continued on the periphery of the village for a time. | ||||||||||||||
