Abstract

Two archaeological test pits in the grounds of Peterhouse, Cambridge revealed a series of layers of post-medieval dumping. All layers post-date the construction of the nearby college boundary in the early 16th century. A large deposit of Collyweston tiles indicates the demolition of a roof from a high status building in the 17th or 18th centuries.
