Abstract:		 In 2009, 2010 and 2011 Archaeological Solutions Ltd conducted a strip, map and sample excavation of Phases 5 and 6 at Coxford Abbey Quarry, East Rudham, Norfolk (NGR: TF 83172 30249). Numerous previously phases of archaeological investigations (field walking and `strip, map and sample' excavations) have been undertaken. Dispersed discrete features, mostly late Neolithic/early Bronze Age pits, have been excavated. Quarry Phase 5A while producing a considerably higher number of `features', yielded fewer finds. The only datable archaeological material was derived from a cluster of four pits in the north-western corner of the site. The pits contained early Bronze Age Beaker pottery. The cluster was similar to those discovered in Excavation Phases 1A, 1B and 2. No finds were recovered from the excavated gault holes More than 110 circular features were revealed in Quarry Phases 5B and 5C. None of the features generated diagnostic cultural material. The majority were tree hollows, large gault holes or smaller naturally- occurring depressions. One of the gault holes, F5089, yielded a single piece of struck flint debitage in a lower fill allowing for the possibility of prehistoric activity. 116 further natural features were identified in Quarry Phase 6. No surface finds were present and none were recovered in the features investigated. A potential ditch terminus (F6007) may suggest the presence of more activity to the south of Phase 6A, though this feature did not continue into subsequent phases.
