Abstract: |
In February 2017 Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) carried out an archaeological evaluation of land at Fordham Road, Soham, north west of the Pedestrian Bridge, Cambridgeshire (NGR TL 6098 7177). The evaluation was undertaken in compliance with a planning condition attached to planning permission for the construction of two dwellings (East Cambs Council Ref. 16/01532/OUT). It was required based on advice from Cambridgeshire County Council Historic Environment Team (CCC HET), and it represents the initial requirement. The site is located within a landscape known for multi-period remains recorded on the Cambridgeshire Historic Environment Record (CHER). Investigations north of the site have revealed extensive Iron Age and Roman settlement/ occupation (CHER ECB4556 and ECB3613). Artefactual evidence of occupation of prehistoric, Roman, Saxon, medieval and post-medieval periods has also been found in the immediate vicinity (CHER MCB9047, MCB9167-9, MCB13750, MCB13743 and MCB11041). The evaluation revealed a probable periglacial feature. |
