Abstract: |
In August 2017 Archaeological Solutions (AS) carried out an archaeological evaluation of land at Stanford Park, Weirs Drove, Burwell, Cambridgeshire CB25 0BP (NGR TL 5787 6656).The evaluation was required by Cambridgeshire County Council Historic Environment Team (CCC HET), as advisors to the Local Planning Authority, to provide for the initial requirements of a planning condition attached to planning approval (East Cambs Planning Ref. 16/00686/OUT). It is proposed to construct a development of approximately 91 residential park homes. The site had a potential for remains of prehistoric, Romano-British and later activity on the former fen edge. The evaluation revealed evidence of fen edge activity dating from the Mesolithic and ?early Neolithic periods. A complete Mesolithic adze, Mesolithic struck flint and ?early Neolithic pottery were found. |
