Abstract: |
An evaluation to assess the archaeological potential of land between Caxton Cottage and Walnut Cottage, Thorney Green Road, Stowupland, Suffolk was carried out to assess the impact of a proposed residential development on heritage assets. The evaluation trenching showed that the potential archaeological horizon/intact geological surface lay at a depth of 0.4m, directly below a heavily disturbed 20th century topsoil, and so has potentially been truncated to an unknown degree. However as the modern ground-level of the plot is consistent with that of the adjacent Thorney Green, it would appear that any such truncation will have been slight. No archaeological deposits were identified, apart from a still extant ditch known to date to at least the late 19th century when it marked the rear boundary of post-medieval settlement along the eastern edge of Thorney Green. This suggest the plot may have historically been an open space within the Green edge frontage. |
