Abstract:
In February and March 2009, Archaeological Solutions (AS) Ltd. undertook an archaeological strip, map and record investigation at Moorley Farm, Saxon Street, Woodditton, Cambridgeshire (NGR TL 664 596). The archaeological investigation was commissioned by James Midwood of Darley Stud Management Co Ltd., in compliance with a planning condition attached to approval for the development of a 2.1km racehorse endurance track. The investigation comprised two areas within the footprint of the endurance track. The outer area was 2.07km long and 3m wide, and encompassed the track. The internal area was 2.03km long and 8m wide, and encompassed the construction access and earthwork bund. Four phases of archaeological activity were identified. Phase 1 (Iron Age) comprised five pits and three ditches. These features were identified in all quadrants of the site. A dew pond was also investigated and may have been utilised from Phase 1 onwards. Phase 2 (Romano-British) comprised pits and ditches thought to derive from agricultural activity. The features were concentrated in the southeastern corner of the site. Phase 3 (post-medieval) comprised a single ditch in the southeastern corner of the site. Also investigated were numerous modern (Phase 4) field ditches and drains, and natural features including two large dry valleys.
