Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was conducted for Anglian Water Services Limited ahead of the installation of a replacement water mains pipeline in fields adjacent to the B1070 at East Bergholt. The evaluation involved fieldwalking the route to establish potential locations of archaeological sites and the excavation of seven trial trenches along the line of the easement. Four of the seven archaeological trial trenches (Trenches 1, 2, 3 and 5) contained archaeological features. Trench 1 contained a group of small pits dating to the Early or Middle Bronze Age. Small pit groups of this date are common throughout East Anglia. Trench 3 contained a very deep pit of mid to late 13th-century date, containing a significant amount of pottery. The pit may be a short-lasting or unfinished well associated with a medieval settlement of short duration close to the development site. Trenches 2, 3 and 5 also contained ditches of probable post-medieval date. The presence of a layer of subsoil beneath the topsoil, which sealed both the prehistoric remains in Trench 1 and the medieval pit in Trench 3, is similar to subsoils of medieval to post-Medieval date which are thought by the author to indicate the presence of 'openfield' type arable agriculture. In East Anglia this subsoil has been observed by the author to frequently post-date the desertion of small hamlets in the 13th century and can be associated with attempts to concentrate the population in fewer, larger villages and impose more regular 'openfield' type arable regimes.
