Abstract: |
Trial trenching was carried out on part of the proposed site of the new Cambourne settlement development. The area investigated was to be landscaped with trees and grass. The very truncated remains of plough furrows were seen, and conformed with cropmarks of ridge and furrow transcribed from aerial photographs. A number of earlier ditches were found, in the backfill of the earliest, Romano-British pottery was found. The ditches may have formed part of a system of rectilinear enclosures or fields, part of which was also apparent as a cropmark close to the evaluation area. [Au(abr)] |
