Abstract:
This report describes the results of an archaeological excavation carried out by Pre-Construct Archaeology on land at Aylesborough Close, Cambridge, CB4 2HH (NGR TL 4486 6101) on the 30th March 2015 to the 8th April 2015. The archaeological work was commissioned by Keepmoat in response to a planning condition attached to the demolition of 24 flats and the erection of 35 private and affordable residential accommodations, with associated car parking, amenity space and ancillary works. The aim of the work was to preserve by record any archaeological remains which would be damaged or destroyed by the new development. The excavation identified an early Roman trackway formed of two parallel linear ditches on a north-west to south-east alignment. The pottery assemblage indicates that the trackway was close to the periphery of an early Roman settlement, which is supported by the known Roman sites within this part of Cambridge.
