Abstract: |
In total along the c. 13.5 km stretch of the pipeline, sixty-four ditches and two pits were recorded; many of the ditches were re-cuts. These features have been interpreted as multi-purpose drainage and boundary ditches and larger well maintained drains. The dating of the features was problematic as little artefactual evidence was recovered although the field-walking did produce several abraded medieval sherds. With such a small quantity of pottery recovered it is difficult to determine whether the sherds represent settlement activity or manure scattering, however, the latter appears to be the most likely. The project included areas in both Norfolk and Cambridgeshire. This entry deals with the Cambrigeshire areas. |
