Abstract
This desktop study, commissioned by ARC Ltd., evaluates the archaeological impact of the proposed expansion of quarries onto land at the end of Meadow Lane, St Ives, Cambridgeshire. Apart from the actual area of the proposed quarry works, the study area has been extended to a one kilometre zone around the proposed quarry to assess likely patterns of archaeological survival. Though no formal excavations have taken place in the area, much is known about the archaeology. The area has been extensively quarried for some years and local archaeological societies and professionals have published sites and syntheses for the last 30 years (CBA Grp 7 1958, 1963; Green 1961; French & Waite 1988).
