Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken in the summer and autumn of 2012 on land between Main Road and Felixstowe Road, Martlesham, prior to planning permission being granted for the development of the land for housing. Seventy-three trenches were opened across the site, revealing a number of linear features thought to include field boundaries, internal subdivision and irrigation ditches and plough lines as well as a smaller number of pits and postholes. The artefactual remains varied from a single Neolithic flint to a quantity of mid 20th century RAF/NAFFI china found in a refuse dump pit (disposed of just outside the old WWII airfield to the south) and also Roman and medieval pottery. It seems likely that, taken in conjunction with the existing known Roman finds in close vicinity, a number of the ditches formed a regularly aligned Roman field system, with possibly an area of underlying later prehistoric activity and overlying medieval field usage.
