Abstract

Between the 22nd and 24th April 1996 the Archaeological Field Unit of Cambridgeshire County Council undertook the preliminary evaluation of the site of an Old Health Centre (TL 5390 8046) situated on the south side of Chapel Street, Ely. The evaluation was commissioned by Anchorpoint Builders Ltd and the NHS Executive (Anglia & Oxford). Two archaeological test pits were excavated on the street frontage. Excavation revealed the remains of two Late Saxon (900-1150) rubbish pits sealed by early fourteenth century deposits in addition to an early medieval quarry pit containing a high level of residual Saxon material.
