Abstract:
In June 2006, Archaeological Solutions (AS) Ltd carried out an archaeological desk-based assessment of land to the west of Turnpike Road, Red Lodge, Suffolk (NGR TL 6960 70502). The assessment was commissioned prior to an archaeological field evaluation, and in advance of the proposed construction of a residential development of 295 dwellings. The development will include the dedication of a public open space/heathland. The site is located to the west of Turnpike Road and includes the majority of a square-shaped enclosure (FRK 036), and the south-eastern corner of another (FRK 049). The historic cartographic sources date the two enclosures from at least 1824, the time of the Freckenham parish enclosure map, although the features had been removed from the cartographic sources by 1952. The SMR entries for the two square-shaped enclosures state that they represent enclosed rabbit warrens, an industry for which the Breckland area, and the area of Red Lodge, is renowned. The two enclosures are thought to date to the post-medieval period, particular since the enclosure of warrens by earthwork banks was common in the 17th and 18th centuries, but it is probable that the warren existed on the site during the medieval period, possibly from 1248 onwards. There is also evidence to suggest that the interior of the enclosures were ploughed, possibly also during the medieval period. The fact that much of the site has been used as a rabbit warren, however, suggests that subsurface deposits are likely to have been truncated and any earlier archaeological deposits disturbed.
