Dernford Farm lay on river terrace gravels in the Cam/Granta valley. Fieldwork by Archaeological Solutions Ltd, in advance of gravel extraction, revealed evidence for occupation from the Neolithic period, to the Middle Iron Age and early Roman times, to Early Saxon times.
Excavations at East Winch on the Greensand Belt in north-west Norfolk, revealed a Romano-British pottery production site - part of the Nar Valley industry - as well as more limited evidence of iron smelting and possible habitation. Tightly dated imports within the pottery assemblage help to develop a chronology for the Nar Valley industry.
A long-term, low-cost rescue project was undertaken in response to gravel quarrying at Maxey between 1983 and 1990. Throughout, the archaeological focus was the more or less concurrent excavation taking place at the Etton causewayed enclosure, a site which was effectively a central point within this part of the lower Welland valley.
