Abstract:		 A programme of archaeological excavation, and monitoring of construction groundworks at land adjacent to Little Priory, Wangford with Henham, following two stages of evaluation. The fieldwork identified further evidence of 12th-14th century medieval settlement contemporary with Wangord Priory, but suggests that the site lies to the south of the Priory precinct and its buildings, and to the west of any medieval settlement that may have lain along the frontage of Church Street. During the medieval period the site has limited evidence of being used for sand or gravel extraction, and for subsequent rubbish disposal in such extraction pits, but was presumably of a general agricultural nature on the outskirts of the medieval settlement. Two large ditches of apparent medieval date presumably represent a broader system of boundaries around the Priory precinct but are at odds with the presumed spatial layout of Priory and village in the medieval period. The proximity of the Priory to the site, and its relatively small size and wealth, was reflected in elements of the finds assemblage. Local wares dominated the medieval pottery and there was a high proportion of fish remains in the faunal assemblage which may reflect religious dietary patterns. Following the Dissolution and the closure of the Priory the site appears to have retained a similar usage throughout the late medieval, post-medieval and modern periods.
