Abstract: |
In November 2014 Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) conducted a programme of archaeological monitoring and recording on land to the rear of 13-14 Market Hill, St Ives, Cambridgeshire. The monitoring was undertaken in compliance with a planning condition attached to planning approval for the residential development of the site and was preceded by an archaeological evaluation, also conducted by AS (Litchenstein 2014). The site is located in an area of considerable archaeological potential within the historic core of St Ives. The preceding archaeological evaluation encountered predominantly modern features and finds although late medieval/ transitional pottery was recovered from a small number of features. Sparse Roman pottery was also recovered including a sherd of residual Nene Valley colour coated ware. Based on the findings of the evaluation, the site was considered to have further potential for late medieval/ post-medieval, modern and, possibly, Romano-British evidence. In the event the monitoring and recording encountered only early modern and modern features including elements of walling, a possible brick-lined soakaway and several pits. The earliest pottery recovered is a residual 17th/ 18th century strap handle, probably from a chamber pot, found in Pit F2032 (L2036). |
