Abstract: |
In February 2018 Archaeological Solutions (AS) carried out an archaeological evaluation on land at the former Sun PH, 78 Hartford Road, Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire PE29 1XG (NGR TL 2454 7201). The evaluation was undertaken to provide for the initial requirements of a planning condition attached to planning approval for the proposed conversion of the existing public house, the demolition of outbuildings and new build to form 5no 2-bedroom dwellings (Huntingdonshire District Council Ref. 15/02256/FUL), based on the advice of Cambridgeshire County Council Historic Environment Team. The riverside location of the site is on the opposite river bank to the Roman fort and town at Godmanchester, but extensive Roman remains have been recorded in the vicinity of the site, especially to the south. The major Saxon and medieval settlement of Huntingdon developed to the south-west and included St. Mary's priory and several churches in the near vicinity. The site had a potential for Roman to medieval remains. |
