The Addenbrookes MSCP Site: An Archaeological Excavation.

Abstract

An archaeological excavation was undertaken by Cambridge Archaeological Unit (CAU) in advance of the construction of a Multi Storey Car Park (MSCP) at Addenbrooke's Hospital, Cambridge. The archaeological evidence was dominated by ditches, which composed elements of multiple phases of field system dating from potentially as early as the Middle Bronze Age, through to the Early Roman period. A small number of pits recorded in the west of the site were probably associated with the Late Iron Age/Conquest period settlement formerly excavated at the Boulevard Site.
