Abstract: |
Trenches and test stations were excavated to evaluate a site at 12 West Street, Isleham. A series of linear features were identified and found to contain 13th and 14th century pottery. The earliest of these was a wide boundary ditch, suggested as being the westernmost boundary of the original Benedictine Priory precinct. Towards the fen edge, the northernmost end of the site, deposits of up to 1m in depth were found consisting of a probable prehistoric buried soil horizon overlain by medieval and modern ploughsoils.
