Description

A scheme of archaeological monitoring and recording was undertaken during the groundworks for the construction of a new dwelling at Broadgate, Whaplode Drove. Medieval features, comprising a ditch, pit and buried soil, were identified, underlying extensive post-medieval made ground deposits. Two further undated features, comprising a pit and ditch, were identified, underlying the buried soil. Although no finds were recovered from these features, the alignment of the ditch matches that of the nearby Romano-British field system previously identified as cropmarks. {1}{2}
