Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was carried out on land south of Union Road, Onehouse, Suffolk prior to a planning application for the residential redevelopment of the site. This phase of work follows a metal detector and fieldwalking survey carried out in 2009 and also a geophysical survey carried out in 2016 and at c.5ha concerns approximately one third of the entire c.15ha proposed development area. Archaeological features were recorded in eight of the trenches with ditches excavated possibly representing a rectilinear field system dating to the Early Iron Age together with four discrete pits, one of which can be dated to the Bronze Age. A post-medieval boundary ditch shown on historic mapping was also excavated. The archaeological levels were, for the most part, well preserved below up to 1.5m of colluvial material, with both post-medieval and later prehistoric origins. Finds were collected from both stratified and unstratified contexts and three environmental samples were collected. |
