Settlement east of Milton

History of settlement

Scheduled Monument

Extensive evidence for Roman activity is recorded running as a corridor along the terrace gravels from Milton to Waterbeach including the discovery of two Romano-British inhumation cemeteries and a site for Horningsea pottery production. An intense area of Roman activity was recorded between Milton Hall and the current site, with occupation being almost continuous throughout the first to fourth century and to the south of Fen Road, at least one other kiln dating from second century.
