Abstract:		 Headland Archaeology (UK) Ltd undertook an archaeological evaluation of land west of Linton Road, Balsham, Cambridgeshire between 15th-30th April 2019. The work was commissioned by CgMs, in accordance with the archaeological planning condition recommended by the Cambridgeshire Historic Environment Team (CHET) for a proposed residential development (S/0255/17/OL). Trial trenches in the eastern half of the site identified heritage assets relating mostly to Roman settlement of the site. Several pits and ditches, perhaps forming small enclosures, as well as a Roman made-ground deposit were identified. The western half of the site revealed no evidence of archaeological features although a colluvial deposit was identified in Trenches 1-7, 10 and 11 which produced a number of worked flints through test-pitting. A buried soil horizon was excavated in Trench 5 and sampled accordingly. A small palaeochannel was identified in Trenches 2-3, 7 and 11 running in a roughly east-west direction along the entire northern side of the site and demonstrated to be later than the Roman deposits.
