This volume presents Mark Hinman's report on the 1999 excavation of a small farmstead accompanied by specialist finds reports. The excavations revealed that the original farmstead was first established c.AD 20 and had been used for some degree of pottery production.

Love's Farm lies on the claylands in western Cambridgeshire. Fieldwork conducted over 60ha by CAMARC (now Oxford Archaeology East), followed geophysical survey, fieldwalking and evaluation. This extensive project permitted archaeological examination of a later prehistoric and Roman agricultural landscape on an unprecedented scale in the county.

This publication describes a relatively small excavation (by CAM ARC, now Oxford Archaeology East), whose size belies its significance. Incredibly, this is the first properly documented archaeological excavation in the core of Wisbech - an historic town long suspected to have preserved interesting medieval deposits.
