Abstract:		 A planning application was made for a housing development which would occupy a site within the village of Stratford St Mary. A field evaluation which involved a desktop assessment and trial-trench excavation was undertaken. The county SMR showed the presence of 5 known sites in the vicinity of the study area, including an important prehistoric cropmark complex, and a Roman burial ground. No evidence was found for any features within the development area, and showed that it lay on the edge of a gravel island, which indicated that the site was probably marginal land, prone to flooding, thus preventing any archaeologically identifiable activities taking place, possibly until the existing village was founded.
