- Summary
- Report on archaeological investigations carried out in advance of quarrying at Little Paxton (Cambridgeshire, England) from 1992 to 1998, involving open-area excavation, watching briefs, salvage recording, air photograph plotting, geophysical survey, fieldwalking, and trial-trenching. "The fieldwork was undertaken ... by Birmingham University Field Archaeology Unit (now Birmingham Archaeology). The investigations recorded flint scatters of Mesolithic-Bronze Age date, pits containing Neolithic-Bronze Age pottery, extensive ditched field boundaries and ditched enclosures of Iron Age and Romano-British date, including livestock enclosures and associated droveways."--P. 1.
