Abstract: |
In February 2012 Archaeological Solutions Limited (AS) carried out an archaeological trial trench evaluation of land west of Church Farm, Naughton Road, Whatfield, Suffolk IP7 6QJ (NGR TM 0265 4672). The evaluation was commissioned to support a planning application for the proposed development of 15 new residential properties with associated public open space (Planning Ref No. B/11/00903/OUT). Four archaeological features were recorded in Trenches 8 and 9 (F1003, F1005, F1007 and F1009). The trenches are not adjacent and therefore the features are not `concentrated' in one area of the site. The features comprise pits and gullies. Gully F1005 and Pit F1007 (Tr. 9) contained a small number (1 and 2 respectively) of medieval (11th - 13th century) pottery sherds. Both features also contained daub, possibly derived from a medieval building (CBM report below). Pit F1003 (Tr.8) also contained daub and may have been broadly contemporary. Gully F1009 (Tr.9) contained no finds but was cut by Pit F1007. The site is situated on the north-west side of Whatfield, and is c.250m to the north-east of the medieval parish church of St Margaret. It lies immediately adjacent to the main route through the village, The Street. The site had a potential for medieval remains, and the larger number of features (three) were contained in Trench 9 close to The Street. |
