Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation consisting of six trenches and one soakaway totalling 46.8m2 was undertaken at St. John's College Playing Fields, Cambridge. The evaluation revealed a ditch and a number of gravel quarry pits, probably dating to the Early Roman period. No evidence of the St. John's College Racquets Court Anglo-Saxon cemetery or the early 13th century Franciscan and later Trinity College conduit known to be located in the general vicinity were present in the evaluation trenches. It is likely that the cemetery lies to the northwest of the proposed development area, while subsequent research indicates that the conduit probably does run through the proposed development area.
