Abstract:
A desk-based assessment was undertaken prior to residential development of the site. The development site comprised an allotment area of 1.28ha to the north of Newmarket Road. The area was located on the eastern edge of the historic city of Cambridge, near the western boundary of the parish of Fen Ditton and north of Teversham. The present study showed that the allotment site lay within a rich archaeological landscape, being surrounded by sites of prehistoric and Roman date. Although no finds were known from the subject site itself, its archaeological potential was considered moderate to high, with particular reference to the Iron Age and Roman period. The area did not appear to have been affected by modern development or disturbance. The state of preservation of any archaeological remains and deposits that might be encountered during excavation was likely to be good. [Au(abr)]
