Abstract:		 An area 38m by 20m was excavated prior to the installation of new sewer drains, as part of the ongoing housing development. The evidence from site indicated the proximity of a Roman settlement, probably lying to the west of the excavation area, while further enhancing the picture of extensive medieval settlement. A medieval timber building and paddock system were uncovered dating to the 9th/10th century, with the surrounding field/paddock paddock maintained until the 12th century. After this period there was movement towards the settlement periphery along West Fen Road and a marked decline in activity, possibly reflecting wider land consolidation with much of the former settlement area being given over to the plough by the 15th century.
