Abstract:		 In 2008, NAU Archaeology undertook an evaluation on land to the east of St Peter''s Field, Bottisham, East Cambridgeshire. The work was conducted in advance of continuing residential development. The evaluation began with a small fieldwalking survey in the southern half of the development area. Two test pits were also excavated within the wooded northern half of the site. No large concentrations of finds resulted from this survey. Six evaluation trenches were then excavated in a herringbone fashion across the site. Three shallow ditches and two short segments of gully were observed within the trenches. Although undated the features were sealed by a layer of subsoil, perhaps indicating a possible prehistoric date. They may represent elements of a field-system. The ditch in Trench 5 produced environmental evidence which indicated that it had existed within a managed environment. Trench 6 contained an irregular pattern of natural hollows which held small amounts of Neolithic pot. Prehistoric people often utilised naturally occurring features, although the amounts of ceramic in this case are small and could have been deposited from the overlying subsoil.
