Abstract: |
In June and July 2019 Archaeological Solutions (AS) carried out an archaeological evaluation on land rear of 32 Lisle Lane, Ely Cambridgeshire.The evaluation was undertaken to provide for the initial requirements of a planning condition attached to planning approval for the proposed development of seven new residential units. Within the four trenches investigated 18 archaeological features were recorded, and their distribution was largely concentrated in the south-eastern section of the site. The majority of features contained datable evidence from the medieval and post-medieval period. Medieval and late medieval transitional pottery sherds and post-medieval pottery sherds were also recovered; Ditch F1015 contained more than half the assemblage total with 74 sherds of early post-medieval pottery of a mid 16th to 17th century date. This evidence appears to concur with the documentary and archaeological evidence for houses and tenements on Lisle Lane in the 13th to 15th centuries (CHER 11858); occupation evidence is also present immediately opposite the site, where pottery sherds demonstrated that occupation continued in the area through the 14th to 16th centuries. Numerous features contained animal bone which appears to represent industrial skinning waste. Ditch F1015, which has been dated to the mid 16th to 17th century, contained a large proportion of the skinning waste including goat remains. |
