Abstract:
On the 26th and 27th January 2015, Britannia Archaeology Ltd (BA) undertook a programme of archaeological monitoring and recording at Sunnyside House, Walsham-le-Willows, Suffolk (NGR TM 02054 71375), during ground reduction work in the kitchen. Despite the high potential for archaeological features dating from the medieval and post-medieval periods, only four layers relating to the properties construction and the former agricultural topsoil were present. The earliest phase encountered was a buried topsoil on which the house was constructed; a jug handle dates this layer to between the 13th to 15th centuries. This buried topsoil was fairly saturated underfoot which may provide a reason for the overlying clay capping layer derived from redeposited clay, potentially excavated from the pond. Glass bottle sherds and a floor tile date this capping layer to the eighteenth century, with a floor tile providing evidence for a former eighteenth century kitchen surface. In the north-western corner of the kitchen was a sand levelling layer, however no dating evidence or associated floor surface was present. This layer had been cut through the clay capping and into the buried topsoil and is therefore believed to have been a more recent edition. A modern demolition layer overlay the sand levelling layer.
