Fulbourn Primary School: Evaluation

Between 3.4.17 and 7.4.17 Oxford Archaeology East (OA East) carried out a trenched evaluation at Fulbourn Primary School, School Lane, Fulbourn, Cambridge CB21 5BH (TL 51910 56170). This work was commissioned by Kier Construction on behalf of Cambridgeshire County Council. The evaluation comprised the excavation of 4 trenches targeting the footprints of proposed new buildings. Trenches 1 and 2 revealed that prior development had caused disturbance to the site in the form of truncation and make-up. Trench 3 revealed no disturbance or archaeological deposits. Trench 4 revealed archaeological features, these consisted of one shallow post hole and one substantial ditch. The ditch produced one sherd of undiagnostic pottery and an assemblage of well-preserved charred plant remains.
