Abstract: |
A trench-based archaeological evaluation, consisting of the excavation of three trial trenches, was undertaken prior to the proposed residential redevelopment of the site. The site lay within the 4th century walled town of Cambridge and close to the line of one of the principal streets. Three main phases of archaeological remains were uncovered: 1st century Romano-British pits and cesspits, 15th/16th century gravel quarrying and metalworking, and 17th/18th century levelling of the site. A large Roman-British finds assemblage was recovered both in situ from Roman features and as residual material in the subsequent gravel pits. [Au] |
