Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation by trial trenching was carried out by Suffolk Archaeology behind No. 1 and No.2 Chapel Cottages, Fox Lane, Darsham, Suffolk. The evaluation assessed 5% of a parcel of agricultural land covering 1.8ha for archaeological evidence. The works consisted of sixteen trenches with one small additional trench. The trenches were set out in a standard grid pattern with trenches aligned north to south and east to west. A small area of grassland behind the village hall was also evaluated with the trenches in this area aligned north-east to south-west and north-west to south-east. All sixteen trenches measured 30m in length excavated with a 1.8m or 1.6m wide ditching bucket with the additional trench A measuring 10m in length. The evaluation of the site has shown that only a topsoil was present to a maximum depth of 0.4m, sealing the natural geology and features. A total of twenty linear features were seen within the trenches along with five pits and eight possible postholes. Linear features were seen in most trenches with various alignments, pits were only seen in four trenches and postholes were seen in a single trench. The linear features varied in size and depth, most seemingly small with widths no greater than 1m and depths from 0.08m to 0.4m. A few larger ditches were also seen measuring c.3m in width with depths of 0.9-1m. In addition to these features a possible ring-ditch, multiple ponds and a hollow was also seen. Dating evidence was recovered from most features spanned the medieval period into the early post-medieval. A possible ring ditch may date to the prehistoric period but there is no supporting finds data to clarify this.
