Anglia Ruskin University, Cambridge. An Archaeological Evaluation

Abstract

The Cambridge Archaeological Unit (CAU) undertook the archaeological evaluation in advance of redevelopment at the Anglia Ruskin University at their campus on East Road, Cambridge. Two trial trenches were excavated within the development area revealing a well preserved street of the Victorian period truncated at pavement level with basements and services. Underlying the street was an earlier, extensive pattern of gravel extraction pits of post medieval origin, no earlier archaeological material or features were noted during the evaluation.
