Abstract:
Phases of evaluation, excavation and monitoring fieldwork were carried out at the primary school in Long Melford, Suffolk. The site was largely undisturbed. The main phases of occupation dated from the later Iron Age into the 3rd century. The features consisted of burials, pits, ditch systems and postholes. These produced pottery, animal bone, ceramic building material, worked flint, heated flint, lava quern stone, fired clay and shell, as well as crucible and tuyère fragments. Small finds included an Iron Age silver Cunobelin coin, a fragment of Roman mirror, an awl, clamp/tweezers, goad, weight and a mount, a medieval buckle and a post-medieval coin and ring. The environmental residues produced charcoal, crop and metalworking residues. The three grave cuts (containing remains of four individuals) and the cremation burial dated from the 1st/2nd to 3rd centuries. The cremation contained an adult within an urn and three vessels, possibly interred within a box. One of the inhumations produced two samian dishes and a flagon and also contained a skull fragment of a child alongside the adult female burial. An inhumation of an adult male produced a single jar/flask and a hairpin (probably residual) and nails indicating a coffin. These two inhumations were buried within larger cuts than required. The final grave was within a smaller cut and contained the partial remains of an adult. Small quantities of residual Neolithic (or Mesolithic) and Early Bronze Age flint were also found.
