Abstract: |
In April 2016 Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) carried out an archaeological evaluation on land to the rear of 40A East Street, St Ives, Cambridgeshire PE27 5PD (NGR TL 3132 7145). The evaluation was undertaken in compliance with a planning condition attached to planning permission for the proposed construction of a new block of two flats (Hunts DC Planning Ref. 15/01287/FUL). The evaluation was undertaken based on advice from Cambridgeshire County Council Historic Environment Team (CCC HET) requiring a programme of archaeological work. The site is within an area of archaeological significance, as shown by entries on the Cambridgeshire Historic Environment Record (CHER), within the historic settlement core. Archaeological investigations in the town have revealed much in the way of Roman, Saxon, medieval and post-medieval activity. Domestic features of 12th-15th century date have been recorded during investigations to the south west of the current site (CHER ECB1952) and investigations to the south have revealed medieval activity and post-medieval activity (CHER ECB1382). The evaluation revealed a large ill-defined 18th - 19th century pit and two modern services. Beneath modern made ground Subsoil L1006 was preserved suggesting that archaeological remains, if present, would have been preserved. |
