Abstract:		 Excavation at 12 Pieces Lane, Waterbeach, undertaken by Archaeological Solutions in 2010, revealed two Romano-British pottery kilns of the Horningsea ware industry. These kilns add to the corpus of information regarding this industry in Cambridgeshire and increase understanding of the character of the industry and the sites at which this pottery was produced. Evidence from these kilns indicates that kiln form varied between the Horningsea production sites. The pottery assemblage recovered suggests that Horningsea ware production had begun in Waterbeach by the early 2nd century AD, earlier than previously thought. Evidence to indicate that earlier kilns may have existed at the site was recorded and this, coupled with the dateable evidence, suggests that the layout of the site was altered repeatedly with kilns being built, demolished and rebuilt several times over in approximately the same locations. The discovery of a small number of Iron Age pits of the 3rd to 1st century BC, along with notable concentrations of residual Iron Age pottery, suggested that there may have been a significant level of Iron Age activity at or close to this location which may have been almost completely obscured by the fairly intense Roman activity that eventually succeeded it.
