Digital Archive from an Archaeological Evaluation at St Felix Lodge, Soham, Cambridgeshire, July 2018

This collection comprises site images and records, spreadsheet data, a report, and a vector drawing from an archaeological evaluation at St Felix Lodge, Soham, Cambridgeshire. The evaluation was carried out by Oxford Archaeology (Cambridge) in July 2018. The evaluation revealed features on the edge of the known core of medieval Soham near to the location of St Felix Abbey. Four large pits of medieval date and three associated ditches forming a re-cut boundary were excavated. The small assemblage of medieval pottery and animal bone recovered during the evaluation is be indicative of domestic refuse and the features were probably activity within a 'back plot' off Paddock Street. A single undated post-hole was also excavated, but it is unclear whether this formed part of a structure or not. A layer of made ground, probably associated with the demolition of the post-medieval malthouse on the corner of Brewhouse Lane and Paddock Street, was also excavated.
