Archaeological fieldwork was carried out ahead of housing development on the former sports ground off Alma Road, Peterborough. A single radiocarbon date suggests that occupation had begun in the middle Iron Age, but the majority of the examined ditches and pits belonged to a late Iron Age/early Roman settlement. The quantity and nature of the finds suggest that the later features were peripheral to a farmstead of modest status which would have lain principally to the north of the site. There was a possible indication of pottery production nearby. A medieval pit was also excavated
