Abstract

Between July and September 2002 the Environment Agency excavated trenches along the front of numbers 11 to 24 Riverside, Cambridge. The work was carried out as part of a flood alleviation scheme along the southern bank of the river Cam. Monitoring of the trenches by staff of the Archaeological Field Unit of Cambridgeshire County Council revealed made ground to a depth of 1m below the present ground level. The made ground comprised sandy silts containing nineteenth and twentieth century rubbish.
