Abstract:		 From the 3rd to the 7th August 2015, Britannia Archaeology Ltd (BA) undertook an archaeological investigation by means of a trial trench evaluation on Land at Rear of 49 - 55 Schoolfield, Glemsford, Suffolk (TL 825 485), in advance of the construction of 15 dwellings and associated works. The evaluation revealed four phases of activity. The most recent phase was topsoil layer 1000 which was the current topsoil layer covering the site. The second phase relates to subsoil layer 1001. This layer sealed all features in Trench 6. The third phase was represented by plough soil layer 1007 which contained pottery ranging in date from the 16th to 20th centuries and sealed three of the features in trench 4. The fourth and final phase of activity on the site is represented by the Roman features in trenches 4 and 6. The nature of pits 1005, 1008 and 1009 is likely to be of agricultural origin, possibly storage or rubbish pits. Ditches 1014 and 1017 run parallel to each other on the same north-west to south-east alignment and ditch 1014 contained significant quantities of Roman pottery. The similar alignment, profile and fill of Ditch 1017 suggest a contemporary date with ditch 1014. These ditches most likely define a track way or drove way and the orientation would eventually cause them to encounter the Roman features in Trench 4 where the ditches were not present, but possibly led to a field or enclosure not identified in the evaluation.
