Abstract: |
In September 2014, Britannia Archaeology Ltd undertook a detailed fluxgate gradiometer survey over c.2.10 hectares of land at The Green, Capel St Andrew, Suffolk, in two agricultural fields, covering the footprint of a proposed agricultural reservoir. Background research indicated that this site was particularly favourable for occupation, located at the head of a tributary and on the outskirts of the former green. A series of enclosures, bordered by an associated droveway to the north and west, with a plethora of internal anomalies were recorded in the dataset that gives credence to this hypothesis. The date of this settlement will remain uncertain until further archaeological work is undertaken. It is most likely that these anomalies are the remains of the medieval settlement that formerly stood on the green's periphery, giving the area its name. It would be prudent to ground test a cross-section of the various anomaly types that were recorded during the geophysical survey. |
