Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken on land to the rear of 43 Hollow Lane, Ramsey in advance of housing development. A number of features were investigated, including pits, small gullies and two N-S ditch alignments, some of which contained abraded sherds of medieval pottery. Several heat-fused bricks were recovered from one of the ditches, probably kiln wasters or part of the structure of a brick or tile kiln, several of which have been recorded to the north of the site dating to the Tudor period. Several sculpted and moulded blocks of Barnack limestone were also found in one of the ditches, likely to have originated from Ramsey Abbey following its dissolution in 1539. |
