Abstract:		 An Archaeological Evaluation was conducted by CAM ARC during April 2008 on land adjacent to Lickings Drove, Wisbech (TF 4531 0856) prior to the development of the site for residential housing with associated services and access. The work was commissioned by Construct Reason Ltd. CAM ARC were commissioned to mechanically excavate 500m of trenching in the development area. The evaluation revealed two phases of land reclamation and evidence for the canalisation of The River Nene. The first was dated via the ceramic evidence to the mid to late 19th Century. Evidence for further reworking of the area during the post war period was also uncovered. This level of modern intrusion and the evidence for the nature of the palaeoenviroments, indicated by the borehole survey, lead to the conclusion that the area was probably unsuitable for occupation prior to the Post Medieval period. The first indication of occupation does not occur until the 18th century suggesting that the natural environment, up to this time, discouraged occupation.
