Abstract:		 In December 2016 Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) carried out an archaeological trial trench evaluation at 23A-27 West Street, St Ives, Cambridgeshire (NGR TL 3114 7149). The evaluation was undertaken in compliance with a planning condition attached to planning approval for the construction of a detached dwelling, a terrace of four new townhouses and the conversion of existing office building to provide four flats (Huntingdonshire Planning Ref. 15/01445/FUL), based on the advice of Cambridgeshire County Council Historic Environment Team (CCC HET). The site had a principal potential for remains of the Saxon, medieval and post-medieval settlement, and also a potential for remains of earlier activity. Trench 1 was located on the frontage of West Street, and Trench 2 was located to the rear of the site. Each trench contained predominantly pits. The pits were larger and the pit digging was more intense in Trench 2 and being located in the back yard area this is unsurprising. 19th century building foundations (M1081) were recorded in Trench 1 and appear to correlate well with narrow ranges visible on historic OS maps. The earliest find was a residual Early Saxon sherd. Residual medieval (11th - 14th and 13th - 15th century) pottery and fragments of residual late medieval peg tile were also found. The most intrinsically interesting find was a silver halfpenny (c.1413 - 1422). The stratigraphically earliest pits in both Trenches 1 and 2 were devoid of finds and undated. The dated pits in each trench were post-medieval or modern, dating from the late 15th - early 17th century (Pit F1026 Trench 2)
