Albion Archaeology has identified a large, previously unknown Roman settlement in Fenstanton that lay on the road linking the Roman towns of Cambridge and Godmanchester. Their excavations were carried out in 2017-18 ahead of the new housing developments on Cambridge Road and at the former Dairy Crest site, the full results of which will shortly be revealed.
