Abstract
An archaeological excavation was carried out at Addenbrooke's Hospital in advance of the construction of a new building, the Cambridge Centre for Applied Learning (CCAL). This examination of the site involved the re-exposure of the Iron Age enclosure ditch first dug by Mary Cra'ster in 1967. A well preserved 12m section of this ditch which includes part of the north-western corner of this enclosure was exposed towards the southern end of a stripped area of c.180 sq m. The location of this feature would appear to confirm the accuracy of Cra'aster's survey and also her plotted projection of this enclosure. At the same time it was possible to re-examine one of the original 1967 excavation trenches.
