Abstract:		 Between the 24th of February and the 14th of March 2014, Archaeological Solutions Ltd undertook an archaeological excavation on land at The Croft, Walsingham Way, Eye, Peterborough (NGR TF 22304 02533). The excavation was followed by a targeted programme of monitoring and recording (carried out between the 23rd of April and the 13th of July 2014). The project was commissioned by Lodge Park Ltd in compliance with an archaeological condition attached to planning approval for the construction of 14 dwellings (Planning Reference: 13/01165/FUL), and based on the advice of Peterborough City Council Archaeological Service. A forerunning archaeological evaluation (Lichtenstein 2013) identified apparently early Romano-British features in the south and east of the site. These were predominantly linear ditches, numbering six in total, in Trial Trenches 1 (F1007), 2 (F1003) and 3 (F1011, F1013, F1015 and F1017). Trial Trench 2 also contained a Romano-British gully (F1009) and pit (F1005), while a second Romano-British pit (F1020) was present in Trial Trench 3. The features all yielded Roman pottery and/ or CBM, including a notable CBM handle, possibly from a 'lamp chimney' or 'testa'. The dates of some of the features identified by the evaluation were revised in light of the excavated evidence. In the event the excavation revealed three possible early Romano-British roundhouses together with sparse, contemporary pits, gullies and a posthole, and series of rectilinear field/ enclosure boundaries dating to the medieval period. The subsequent programme of monitoring and recording encountered modern demolition material and disturbance (from the former care home buildings), modern made ground, an undated pit and three ditches, two of which were intercutting. One of the latter yielded a single medieval pot sherd and two of the ditches appeared to represent continuations of boundary ditches recorded by the evaluation and/ or excavation.
