Abstract

This archaeological desktop assessment was requested by Hannah Reed Associates on behalf of Mackays of Cambridge Ltd to assess the likely impact of the construction of new premises/properties within the current site. Evaluation of the archaeological, historical, aerial and cartographic evidence shows the site to be located within an urban area of known historical and architectural significance, dating from the 12th Century AD to the present date. The later history of the site, which includes a 19th century foundry and ironworks, suggest that the probability of survival of pre-19th century archaeological remains is low.
