Abstract:
This report describes the results of an archaeological evaluation and excavation carried out by Pre-Construct Archaeology on land at 6-14 Water Lane, Cambridge (centred on OS NGR TL 4678 6005) between 24th July and 8th August 2015. The archaeological work was commissioned by Keepmoat in response to a planning condition attached to the construction of 24 new residential units following the demolition of existing buildings. The aim of the work was to preserve by record any archaeological remains which would be damaged or destroyed by the new development. The fieldwork showed evidence for multiple phases of occupation for the site, the earliest land use occurs in the Bronze Age. The presence of earlier flint work may suggest some transient earlier occupation of the site, possibly utilising the river valley. Evidence from ditches and occasional pitting activity suggested occupation from the Saxo-Norman period through the medieval period and up to the modern day. Large scale quarry activity was seen on the north-eastern side of the excavation area, dating to 19th century.
