Dimmock's Cote Quarry, Northern Extension, Wicken, Cambridgeshire

In September 2010 Oxford Archaeology East conducted a desktop assessment to examine the available historical and archaeological resources relating to 9ha of land to the north of Dimmock's Cote quarry. The development area is sited to the north of a series of archaeological interventions conducted by OA East (previously CCC AFU) between 1993 and 2010. The study area encompasses a circular area of approximately 1.5km diameter and has revealed an extensive prehistoric landscape along with evidence for Iron Age to Medieval activity.
