  We present a detailed analysis of the high energy gamma-ray source 2EG
J0008+7307. The source has a steady flux and a hard spectrum, softening above 2
GeV. The properties of the gamma-ray source are suggestive of emission from a
young pulsar in the spatially coincident CTA 1 supernova remnant, which has
recently been found to have a non-thermal X-ray plerion. Our 95% uncertainty
contour around the >1 GeV source position includes the point-like X-ray source
at the centre of the plerion. We propose that this object is a young pulsar and
is the most likely counterpart of 2EG J0008+7307.
