Abstract

Between 22nd and 23rd May 2017 Oxford Archaeology East conducted an archaeological evaluation comprising five trenches at Whitwell Farm, Offord Cluny, Cambridgeshire (centred on TL 2196 6739), in advance of a housing development.
Four of the five trenches contained no archaeological remains and were disturbed by large sand extraction pits. Trench 5 contained wall foundations for a 19th-century outbuilding facing onto High Street, as well as associated remains including an outhouse or latrine pit. The location of the building is within a house plot depicted on the First Edition Ordnance Survey map of 1885, although the house itself is shown slightly closer to High Street. A possible medieval or post-medieval boundary ditch was found towards the back of the 19th century property.
