A14 Improvement Scheme - Board 1 Girton College

Excavation underway

A14 Public Interpretation board at Girton College

The A14 Cambridge to Huntingdon Improvement Scheme was led by MOLA-Headland Infrastructure (a consortium of Museum of London Archaeology and Headland Archaeology) and was funded by National Highways. These interpretation boards were installed by Cambridgeshire County Council with Oxford Archaeology East as part of a project funded by National Highways.

A long programme of archaeological investigation has culminated in a series of 40 excavations targeted on archaeological sites dating from the Neolithic through to the 19th century. At the eastern end of the scheme, six excavation areas were identified between Girton and Bar Hill recording evidence for Iron Age activity to the late Roman period.
