Abstract

In the spring of 1995 the Archaeological Field Unit of Cambridgeshire County Council carried out an archaeological watching brief, by means of fieldwalking and monitoring of earth-moving, in fields forming an extension to the Gog Magog Golf Course, Stapleford, Cambridgeshire (TL 500/538).
The site forms part of an area of significant prehistoric and Roman activity, lying within a few hundred metres of Neolithic flint scatters, Bronze Age barrows, the Iron Age hillfort of Wandlebury, and the Roman road known as Worsted Street. While a previous evaluation had found little evidence for activity on the sloping ground of the Golf Course site, fieldwalking for the recording brief produced a discrete cluster of Mesolithic flints, probably representing a production site.
