Abstract

An archaeological investigation was carried out at Huntingdon, Grid ref TL 23925 72097. The evaluation consisted of 7 trenches located within the proposed development area. The archaeological investigation followed the demolition of the existing structures on the site.
All of the trenches had experienced modern disturbance, however islands of archaeological deposits survived in varying depths across the site. The character of the partial remaining deposits and features was found to be very similar to the adjoining site excavated in 2007. (Gilmore and Spoerry, 2007.) With structures and plot boundaries of Medieval date, however the level of truncation and the depth of modern overburden made the slight archaeological remains difficult to locate and inaccessible.
