Abstract:		 In May 2012, Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) conducted an archaeological evaluation at 136 Lynn Road, Ely, Cambridgeshire (NGR TL 5438 8110). The evaluation was undertaken in advance of the proposed demolition of two bungalows and the construction of seven new dwellings. It was required by Cambridgeshire County Council Historic Environment Team, as advisors to the local planning authority, in compliance with a planning condition attached to planning approval (East Cambs DC Ref. 09/00783/FUL). The site lies in an area of archaeological potential on the eastern side of Lynn Road, and on the northern side of Ely. It lies on the northern part of the former fenland 'island', at a height of c.21m AOD. The Cambridgeshire Historic Environment Record records the presence of a rich archaeological landscape, within and surrounding Ely, but this northern edge of the settlement has seen relatively limited past archaeological investigation. Investigations in advance of the construction of the Ely bypass did reveal significant Neolithic/Bronze Age finds scatters and sites identifying occupation in the area west of Lynn Road (HER ECB385). To the north east, interconnected cropmark enclosures believed to be of later prehistoric or Roman date lie some 350m from the site at High Barns (HER NCB8653), with a pagan Saxon inhumation cemetery to the south (HER MCB2641). In the event no archaeological features or finds were present. All three trenches, and in particular Trenches 2A and 2A, revealed evidence of truncation and modern disturbance. No residual finds were recovered.
