Abstract

An Archaeological Evaluation was carried out at Green End House, St. Ives in advance of the construction of a proposed housing development. The work was carried out by the Archaeological Field Unit of Cambridgeshire County Council between 14th and 21st December 2000.
A total of four trenches were excavated and all contained archaeological features. Evidence of late Saxon/Saxo-Norman and twelfth to fourteenth century domestic activity as recorded. This consisted of an enclosure ditch, a series of post holes, a possible oven feature and a series of minor boundary ditches, many of which contained pottery from the medieval period. Evidence of Iron Age activity occurred in one ditch. A post-medieval well and boundary ditches associated with Green End House were also recorded.
