Abstract:		 An archaeological watching brief was commissioned by Swann Edwards Architecture on behalf of Mr J. Leigh during groundworks associated with the construction of an extension to the rear of 3 The Crescent, Wisbech. The earliest deposits encountered were the clayey silts of the local superficial geology. The only feature encountered was a masonry structure thought to be an old water cistern. This coincided nicely with the location of a pump shown on the 1887 Ordnance Survey map of the area. The lack of any medieval features or finds, in an area thought to be within the medieval castle, suggest that there may have been a large amount of truncation caused by the development of The Crescent in the early 19th century.
