Abstract: |
This report describes the results of an archaeological trial trench evaluation carried out by Pre-Construct Archaeology on land at the Former Bus Depot, Kilmaine Close, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire (NGR TL 4587 6165) between the 27th and the 28th March 2017. The archaeological work was commissioned by CgMs in response to a planning condition attached to the construction of a unit to be used as a builders' merchant for display, sale and storage of building supplies with associated car parking, services and landscaping (Planning Reference 16/1164/FUL). The aim of the work was to characterise the archaeological potential of the proposed development area. The site was heavily truncated likely due to landscaping prior to the construction of the former bus depot. The site was likely levelled before construction which potentially removed a former natural rise in elevation from the south to the north. The result of this levelling was that all the gravels which likely had archaeological features or deposits have been removed wholescale. |
