Abstract:		 In order to investigate the archaeological potential of a proposed residential development site at 2 Hammond Way, Somersham, Cambridgeshire, the Heritage Network was commissioned to undertake a field evaluation by trial trenching. Two trenches were excavated across the site, one covering 60m² and one covering 8.75m², representing a 2.96% sample of the 2320m² site by area. Possible evidence for at least one of the postulated medieval fishponds associated with the Bishop of Ely's palace was encountered, comprising a clay layer below a humic deposit. However, environmental analysis of samples taken from the humic layer suggests this was more likely to represent a marshy layer of late post-medieval date. No evidence for cut features, other deposits or finds was encountered during the present project.
