Description

An archaeological evaluation was undertaken at River Green House, Great Chesterford, to support a planning application to demolish the existing house and rebuild it over a slightly larger footprint. Two 1.5 x 1.5m test pits were excavated by hand, one to the north-west of the existing house (TP A) and one to the south-east (TP B). NRHE data transfer: Two test pits were excavated, recording a large pit containing late medieval material.
