Abstract

An evaluation was undertaken at the former Huntingdon Model Laundry, Ouse Walk, Huntingdon in advance of a proposed residential development. The evaluation was undertaken in accordance with a Brief issued by Kasia Gdaniec of the Cambridgeshire Archaeology, Planning and Countryside Advice team, supplemented by a Specification prepared by Cambridgeshire County Council Archaeological Field Unit.
Preliminary results show that medieval and earlier deposits were encountered at various depths below the modern ground surface. In Trenches 1, 2 and 5 alluvial deposits were revealed at c. 1m below modern make-up and demolition layers, whilst in the remaining trenches (3 to 9), medieval deposits were reached at a depth of c. 0.4-0.7m.
