Abstract:		 In February 2012 Archaeological Solutions Limited (AS) carried out an archaeological trial trench evaluation on land at the Wheatsheaf Public House, 125 Great North Road, Eaton Socon, Cambridgeshire (NGR TL 1692 5877). The evaluation was undertaken in compliance with a planning condition attached to planning approval for the redevelopment of the site comprising three houses, a bungalow, landscaping and ancillary works (Planning Ref No. 1101645FUL). The site lies in an area of archaeological potential on the western side of the historic route of the Great North Road, within the historic core of the settlement of Eaton Socon. It comprises the former Wheatsheaf PH, car park and garden. The site lies on deposits of Till, above the terrace of the river Great Ouse to the east, at a height of c.18m AOD. The evaluation revealed three medieval features (Pit F1037 Tr.1, Pit F1015 Tr.2 and Pit F1010 Tr.3) and a residual medieval sherd (from Pit F1045 Tr.1) were recorded. The medieval features were all pits, and occurred within each trench. The number of pottery sherds found were small (2, 2 and 8 sherds) and associated finds comprise small quantities of CBM and sparse oyster shell. The majority of the archaeological remains are post-medieval and modern, and likely relate to the former public house. The small number of medieval pits relate to the medieval settlement of Eaton Socon.
