Abstract:		 Further trial trench evaluation were conducted at Highflyer Farm, Ely in the autumn of 2011 following on from earlier stages of geophysical survey and trial trench excavation. This stage of fieldwork confirmed five principal groups of archaeological remains; a large isolated middle to late Iron Age pit, a rectangular enclosure, an area of scattered pits, a concentration of late Iron Age and Roman enclosures and a post-medieval brick kiln. Pits and enclosure ditches produced pottery which was predominantly late Iron Age, representative of small localised features created from the 1st century BC, with perhaps some used into the 1st century AD. Up to four small rectangular and sub-rectangular enclosures may have been present, together with scattered groups of pits. Most of this activity was abandoned before the Roman period. A group of enclosures were established in the late Roman period, probably during the 3rd to 4th centuries, but were abandoned by the late 4th century. A possible hoard of late 4th-century coins, was discovered and reported under the terms of the Treasure Act 1992. Other finds of pottery, metal and animal bone all suggested that they originated from domestic debris, but the lack of evidence for building materials or structural features
