Abstract

Between 29th and 30th November 2004 the Archaeological Field Unit (AFU) of Cambridgeshire County Council conducted an archaeological evaluation at Stuntney, Cambridgeshire (TL 55479 77608) on behalf of Anglia Water in advance of the proposed construction of a water reservoir and access road.

Sixteen trenches totalling 560m were mechanically excavated. Two modern pits were found in trenches 6 and 11. Both were identified in the geophysical survey. Two postholes were uncovered in trench 7, one of which contained a fragment of modern roof tile, and a ditch, probably remains of a medieval furrow. No other archaeological features were encountered.
