Abstract:
The Cambridge Archaeological Unit (CAU) undertook a trench-based evaluation on a 140 hectare area of land located in the northwestern part of the city of Cambridge . The Proposed Development Area comprises a roughly triangular area of farmland situated on the suburban fringe of the town. The site extends from Huntingdon Road in the northwest to the M11 in the west, and also abuts the A14 to the northeast and Madingley Road to the south. Its irregular form is primarily the result of the presence of earlier developments in the area. A series of trenches were initially set out across the PDA in a regular, grid-like pattern; these were then supplemented by a number of judgmental trenches that were inserted into areas where a particular concentration of archaeological features was encountered. In total, 313 trenches, measuring 13082.6m in length and covering a combined total of 28165.5m2, were excavated.
