Purbeck House, Purbeck Road, Cambridge: An Archaeological Desk Top Assessment


Change log

Abstract

This archaeological desk top assessment was requested by Camstead Ltd to assess the likely impact of development of Purbeck House (TL459565, covering an area of 1840m2. Evaluation of the archaeological, historical, aerial and cartographic evidence shows the site to be situated in an area of low archaeological potential that has undergone significant urban development and change since the construction of the Cambridge to London mainline railway line in 1845. Nonetheless, pockets of surviving archaeology have been found in the study area and adjacent to Purbeck House.
