Abstract: |
The evaluation identified a small number of pits and ditches, with a focus towards the south-west within the site, nearer the route of the modern Wisbech Road/A141. Dating evidence recovered from the features was generally sparse, although the nature of the fills found within and the finds assemblages recovered from the features located further away from Wisbech Road indicates they are post-medieval in date. The features identified closer to Wisbech Road generally consisted of ditches, which produced small finds assemblages of a Roman date and were aligned following the extrapolated boundary between March Island and the fen in this period. As such these features may represent a longer-lived boundary or trackway, located where March island falls away into the fen, or field systems aligned parallel to this natural boundary. |
