Histon and Impington Junior School

On 9th and 10th August 2017, Oxford Archaeology East carried out an archaeological evaluation within the grounds of Histon and Impington Junior School. The evaluation was required to provide information in relation to proposals for the construction of a new school building and an all-weather sports pitch. The evaluation revealed a single post-medieval ditch, along with two modern pits. Four small abraded sherds of medieval pottery were also recovered; these are probably a result of manure spreading during the medieval period, indicating an agricultural land-use at that time.
