| Abstract: |
Archaeological evaluation by trial trenching was carried out at Dalmark House, Thorney Road, Eye, Peterborough. The investigation was undertaken in advance of the construction of a seed gran store as a known Anglo-Saxon cemetery was located within 500m of the site. Only natural deposits, possible alluvium, post medieval ditches and modern land drains were recorded. The site seems to have been farmed since medieval times, and ditches found in the evaluation trenches were on the same alignment as post medieval boundaries shown on old Ordnance Survey maps. Finds dating to the 17th to 20th centuries were retrieved during the investigation. |
