Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation by trial trenching was carried out by Suffolk Archaeology at Ropers Farm, Church Road, Mendlesham. The evaluation assessed 5% of a small parcel of land covering 0.14ha for archaeological evidence. The works consisted of two trenches, one aligned north to south and one aligned east to west measuring 40m in total length. The evaluation showed that the recent farm yard (which was the evaluated area) and associated barn buildings has seen a lot of recent activity (late 20th to 21st century). The evaluation trenches revealed three large pits occupying at least 80% of the trenched area. The pits contained farmyard waste including plastic bags, concrete and iron. These pits were in excess of 1m in depth and any archaeological evidence that may have been present has been removed. |
