Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation comprising five machine excavated trenches was undertaken at the site of Perse Upper School, Cambridge. Archaeological features were identified in two trenches, being three ditch features. Two of the ditch sections were identified as belonging to the same east-west aligned post-medieval boundary ditch, with the remaining smaller northeast-southwest orientated ditch being of uncertain function or date. The evaluation trenches also demonstrated that undisturbed subsoil and topsoil deposits survived across the site up to a depth of 0.6m. Overall, a moderate density of archaeological features were encountered, all of which are of limited significance. This, taken into account with the undisturbed soil horizons identified across the site, indicates a negligible potential for further archaeological significant features to be present. |
