Summary
2015 Test Pit 11. Pieces of possible flints and burnt stone were recovered from one of 12 test pits excavated as part of an Access Cambridge Archaeology project. The finds are potentially of a later prehistoric date and suggest a later prehistoric presence on site, although analysis of the lithics would be needed to confirm this.
