Abstract:
A series of nine (9) test pits were excavated across the site of a proposed borrow pit at North Farm, Barnham, Suffolk to assess whether any of the geological deposits present within the application site contained or had the potential to contain Palaeolithic archaeological remains. Recorded sediments for the test pits comprise in situ and reworked glaciofluvial sand and gravel, Chalky Lowestoff Till, colluvial sediment and probable palaeosols. Sediments containing in situ and reworked archaeological materials similar to those recorded at the Lower Palaeolithic archaeological sites of East Farm, Barnham, and Brickyard Pit, Elveden, were not found within the area of the site. In addition, no artefacts were recovered from any of the test pits. These results indicate that deposits containing or having the potential to contain Palaeolithic artefacts and other materials are not present within the application area. Sand and gravel extraction will therefore have no impact on Palaeolithic heritage assets.
