Seventy trenches were excavated. The evaluation uncovered a dense concentration of ditches, pits and postholes within the south-eastern corner of the site, an area where cropmarks had previously been recorded. These features were subject to limited investigation only, as an early decision was taken by the developer to remove this area of the site from construction impacts. High quantities of pottery and animal bone indicated that the site was primarily domestic in nature, although there was also limited evidence for animal husbandry and an isolated human burial was recorded. Dating evidence recovered from the site suggested that it was occupied from the later Iron Age into the earlier Roman era, with activity intensifying in the first century AD. The site appears to have been abandoned after the second century AD. The archaeological features at the site were almost entirely enclosed by an open, water-filled boundary/drainage ditch marked as a County Constituency Boundary on modern mapping. Cropmarks continue the line of the ditch to the north-east, outside of the site boundary. The apparent relationship between this ditch and the Iron Age/Roman features may suggest that the ditch has ancient antecedents – perhaps a natural watercourse which was later exploited as a drain. 2 © Cotswold Archaeology Land south of Brooklands Farm, Abbots Ripton, Cambridgeshire: Archaeological Evaluation 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 In October and November 2013, Cotswold Archaeology (CA) carried out an archaeological evaluation for the Abbey Group Cambridgeshire Ltd on land south of Brooklands Farm, Abbots Ripton, Cambridgeshire (centred on NGR: TL 2270 7670; Fig. 1). An application (ref: 1301218FUL) has been made to Huntingdonshire District Council (HDC) for the construction of a solar farm and ancillary structures at the site. 1.2 The evaluation was undertaken in response to a brief issued by the Historic Environment Team, Cambridgeshire County Council (HETCCC 2013), the archaeological advisors to HDC. The evaluation was in line with a subsequent detailed written scheme of investigation (WSI) produced by CA (2013a) and approved by Kasia Gdaniec (Senior Archaeologist, HETCCC). 1.3 The fieldwork also followed the Standard and Guidance for Archaeological Field Evaluation (IfA 2009); Research and Archaeology: A Framework for the Eastern Counties 1 – Resource Assessment and 2 – Research Agenda and Strategy (EAA Occasional Papers 3 and 8); Management of Archaeological Projects (English Heritage 1991); and Management of Research Projects in the Historic Environment (MORPHE): Project Manager’s Guide (English Heritage 2006). It was monitored by Kasia Gdaniec, including a site visit on 5 November 2013. The site 1.4 The evaluation site is located some 0.8km south-west of the village of Abbots Ripton, Cambridgeshire, and encloses an area of approximately 56.7ha. At the time of the evaluation, it comprised three agricultural fields, defined by ditches. The Great Northern Railway runs along the eastern site boundary, and Rectory Lane runs along the northern boundary. Alconbury Airfield lies to the immediate south-west of the site; further agricultural fields lie to the north, south and east. 1.5 The site lies at an average of 43m AOD. The ground is relatively flat, but displays a gentle slope down towards the north-western and southern boundaries. The underlying bedrock geology of the area is mapped as mudstones of the Oxford Clay Formation. Where recorded, the superficial deposits at the site comprise Mid Pleistocene till (BGS 2013). The site lies to the south-west of the Fens. 3 © Cotswold Archaeology Land south of Brooklands Farm, Abbots Ripton, Cambridgeshire: Archaeological Evaluation Archaeological background 1.6 The following information is summarised from the desk-based assessment of the site produced by CA (2013b). 1.7 The south-eastern corner of the site contains extensive cropmarks indicative of possible Iron Age and/or Roman settlement. These cropmarks continue to the immediate east of the site. Iron Age and Roman field systems were investigated during an archaeological evaluation to the south-west of the site (Macaulay 2000). A Roman stone and artefact scatter was found within the eastern part of the site. 1.8 There is aerial photographic evidence for former medieval ridge and furrow field systems within the site. Three medieval moated sites (all of which are scheduled monuments) lie within 1km of the evaluation site boundary. Archaeological objectives 1.9 The objectives of the evaluation were to provide information on the archaeological resource within the site, including its presence/absence, character, extent, date, integrity, and state of preservation, in accordance with the Standard and Guidance for Archaeological Field Evaluation

    REPORT ON FOREST RESEARCH 1971 FORESTRY COMMISSION Forestry Commission HMSO £1.60 net ARCHIVE The plate on the cover is of an area photographed on 4 May 1970, in infra-red colour (false colour') to indicate areas of Scots pine damaged by the Pine looper moth, Bupalus piniarius,in Wykeham Forest, Yorkshire. (See Entomology, page 85). The above diagram explains the variously coloured areas in the photograph. The top right-hand sector bounded by the solid line is of Scots pine with a few scattered Japanese larch, all planted in 1930. The pine defoliated by Pine looper appear blue in the photograph (stippled in the diagram), those relatively unalfected are a deep purplish red; the Japanese larch are pink. The area covered by the photograph also includes other tree species planted both in the normal afforestation programme and in silvicultural experiments. Gaps in some of the silvicultural plots have been caused by mechanical uprooting of trees to compare the rooting patterns of tree species in connection with their susceptibility to windthrow. Key to tree species: CP Corsican pine, JL Japanese larch, LP Lodgepole pine, MC Mixed conifers, NS Norway spruce, SP Scots pine, SS Sitka spruce.

  • Tree-Strategy-Introduction.Pdf
    February 2015 A Tree Strategy for Huntingdonshire Introduction 2 Introduction A TREE STRATEGY FOR HUNTINGDONSHIRE Introduction Foreword by Councillor Douglas Dew Executive Councillor for Strategic Planning & Housing: Huntingdonshire has a varied historic landscape of 350 square miles, with 4 market towns and nearly 100 villages, all within an expanse of attractive, open countryside, farmland, and woodland. Trees play an important role in the rural and urban landscapes of Huntingdonshire, improving the quality of life in many ways. They make a great contribution to our rural and urban areas, adding great beauty and character and creating a sense of place. They enhance and complement the built environment by providing screening, focal points, privacy and perspective. Those in parks and gardens bring nature into the hearts of our towns. Streets planted with trees look better, and they also provide valuable wildlife corridors, connecting open spaces. Trees are the largest and oldest living things in the environment. Trees and woodlands are dominant landscape features, and collectively they form one of Huntingdonshire’s finest features. We need to protect our trees and care for them properly. We also need to make sure we plant new trees to replace those that we have to remove, or which have reached the end of their normal lives, so that future generations can derive the same enjoyment and benefits from trees that we do. This strategy sets out how the Council will do this over the coming years. We aim to have more and better trees than we have at the moment, in an attractive environment which will help make Huntingdonshire a better place in which to live, work, study and spend leisure time.

Well, now it has been finalised, and I’m sure that you will agree with me when I say that it is an excellent and high quality piece of work. On behalf of the Parish Council I would like to thank and congratulate all the people who contributed to its development. It is also very pleasing that so many of you took the trouble to complete the questionnaire, and also turned out in force for the open day held in the village hall in June. During the production of the plan the Parish Council deliberately took a back seat, in order to avoid influencing the views of the working party and to ensure that emerging themes were neither greeted with disproportionate enthusiasm nor smothered at birth.
