Abstract:
Planning permission for the construction of nine dwellings at 12 Green Street, Willingham, has been granted by South Cambridgeshire District Council. The initial phase of work comprised trial trenching. The trial trenching was carried out in April 2011 and comprised the excavation of two trial trenchs located within the proposed development area. The trial trenching uncovered two possible sand/gravel quarry pits, five post holes and two service trenches. The quarry pitting is likely to be post-medieval in date and the post holes, modern. The service trenches were related to the house and its outbuildings which were built around the turn of the 20th century. Both trenches also contained several layers of redeposited material which collectively would have significantly raised the ground surface in the area. This may have been necessary to level the natural topography or more likely to infill previous episodes of quarrying activity. None of the archaeological features found during the evaluation are considered to be significant or of particular interest although the recovery of redeposited pottery sherds dating to High Medieval period is of note as it indicates activity of this date in the area, although not necessarily within the boundaries of the site.
