Abstract:
Between 7th and 19th October 2015, Oxford Archaeology East (OA East) carried out an archaeological evaluation on land at Barleyfields, Fulbourn, Cambridgeshire. 23 trenches totalling 555 linear metres were excavated across the proposed development area. Archaeological remains were recorded in all trenches. Undated inhumations, an Early Bronze Age barrow ring ditch, Early Iron Age pits, a Late Iron Age apsidal enclosure, Romano-British cremations, numerous undated and Roman ditches along with medieval backyard industrial activity including a possible sunken featured building were recorded across the proposed development area. Evidence surviving in the archaeological record indicates that the surrounding historic landscape has seen significant occupation and some industrial activity beginning at least four and a half thousand years ago and lasting into the medieval period. A moderate assemblage of Early Iron Age pottery was recovered from pits within the eastern field as well as an assemblage of Late Iron Age and Roman pottery from features across site, particularly from the apsidal enclosure, along with a large assemblage of animal bone, mostly from Late Iron Age and Early Roman contexts. A very small assemblage of Early Medieval pottery was also recovered from the features near the southern limit of the proposed development area. Small finds include a two Roman coins, seven worked bone items and an Early Roman copper alloy toiletry piece. Environmental results were relatively good, with mineralised plant and insect remains being recovered from the possible sunken featured building and moderate amounts of charred plant remains from Roman and medieval contexts.
