Abstract:		 In 1967 a team led by Mary Cra'ster undertook the rescue excavation of an Iron Age enclosure discovered during the construction of Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge. Following the Cambridge Archaeological Unit's large-scale excavations at the Hutchison Site along the western side of the hospital grounds in 2002-03, subsequent development afforded an opportunity to further investigate Cra'ster's enclosure. This article gives a brief appraisal of Cra'ster's findings before describing the results of the 2007 and 2010 excavations. As the area was known to be truncated and any minor settlement features were unlikely to survive, the main aim of the recent programme was to achieve substantive finds and environmental assemblages from the enclosure to provide greater context for the earlier fieldwork. Aside from a possible pit and plough furrows, the main enclosure ditch was the only significant feature present. The pottery assemblage indicated a Middle/later Iron Age date, and suggested that the site should be ranked as a fairly typical domestic compound of the period. LD
