Elizabeth House, 1 High Street, Chesterton, Cambridge. An Archaeological Desktop Assessment

Abstract

This archaeological desk based assessment was commissioned by Savills to assess the potential impact of a proposed development of Elizabeth House, 1 High Street, Chesterton, Cambridge (TL 4600 5980). Assessment of the archaeological, historical and cartographic evidence shows the PDA to be located within an area of known archaeological finds and features dating from the prehistoric period to the post-Medieval period, notably quarrying and extraction from these latter two periods.
