Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation was undertaken on land at Hatchwood, March, Cambridgeshire in order to determine the archaeological implications of proposed development at the site.The site lay in an area of known archaeological remains. The HER records the site of a shrunken medieval village to the south of what was thought to be a moat or medieval fishponds where brick, 15th century pottery, shell, quern and bone have been found. This is thought to relate to part of Hatchwood manor or possibly part of Knights End manor. The investigation revealed some possible prehistoric remains, a Saxon pit, Late Saxon to medieval and post-medieval settlement and occupation remains (and a possible moat) within an enclosure ditch which remained in use to the post medieval period. Environmental evidence showed the surrounding landscape being used as pasture for animal husbandry with cultivation and ridge and furrow agriculture being introduced in the post-medieval period. The patterning of archaeological remains and demarcation of the landscape with the possibility of a moat within the enclosure is consistent with the interpretation of this site as part of a manor or farmstead. The undated moat or medieval fishponds to the north of the enclosure were found to probably date to the 18th century and sampling produced no fish bones. The interpretation of this feature thus remains uncertain. An augre survey at the corner of the adjacent field was included in the evaluation. The survey revealed a probable palaeosol surviving on the bed of a dry river.
