This paper presents the aims and methods of an archaeological programme intended to investigate the historic development of currently occupied rural settlements (CORS), previously largely neglected in favour of the minority of rural settlements which have become deserted or substantially shrunken. The project aims to help redress that balance in favour of the still-inhabited majority. This paper reviews the results of the first year of the programme when 1m square ‘test pit’ excavations were carreid out within thirteen CORS in eastern England were carried out in 2005 and 2006 as part of an ongoing widening participation and outreach scheme — the Higher Education Field Academy — run from of the department of Archaeology of the University of Cambridge. The project combines existing methods with new approaches to reveal a considerable quantity of new evidence for the development of medieval rural settlement. Results are presented from three of the then most-intensively investigated settlements which identify new foci of occupation and propse new ideas about their development. The results also highlight the extent to which undisturbed medieval depostis can survive within CORS. Published in Medieval Archaeology, 51, 2007.
