Excavations prior to a much- anticipated development in Cambridgeshire have unearthed a rich history, including Bronze Age skeletons and pottery. Council- partnered developer This Land explains the benefits of this major scheme to Jack Wooler.

large-scale new development is beginning to make headway near Cambridge following a major archaeological dig, which has uncovered remains and artefacts dating back to 1200 BC.

Being a greenfield site, the developer has had to conduct a series of surveys to satisfy local residents’ demands, and jump through a number of planning hoops to limit perceived impact on the environment.
