Abstract:		 In October through December 2014 Britannia Archaeology Ltd (BA) undertook an archaeological trial trench evaluation on land at Stowbridge Farm, Stretham, Cambridgeshire (NGR: TL 5170 7150) to comply with planning permission for the construction of a 20MW solar farm. The works comprised the excavation of 26 trial trenches split between two phases of work: Phase 1 within the South Field (Fig. 4) comprised 15 trenches and Phase 2 within the North Field (Fig. 5) comprised 11 trenches. The site had a potential for prehistoric and Roman archaeology; in particular archaeology relating to the early Bronze Age ad hoc timber track way discovered during archaeological evaluation earlier in 2014 to the south of the current Phase 1 evaluation area (Adams, 2014). The evaluation yielded a reasonably preserved stratigraphic fen sequence within the southern field that had escaped post-medieval plough truncation. This sequence showed various inundation and drought conditions within the area during the fen formation. The remainder of the investigation area had been severely plough truncated during the post-medieval and modern periods. However ditching, tree removal and marl pitting gave an insight into this period of fen land-reclamation and land-use post-fen drainage.
