Abstract:
Trenches were excavated on arable land and school grounds just south of West Row Road and surrounding Sheldrick Way, in Mildenhall. The site is intended for development into a series of public facilities. The evaluation works were required to assess any archaeological resources that might survive. It was preceded by a geophysical survey. Archaeological deposits were identified in sixty of the trenches with the remaining 97 being empty (although many of these still produced metal finds from the topsoil and subsoil). Sporadic remains of Neolithic to Bronze Age occupation and Iron Age to Roman features were recorded in the northern area of North Field, along with a medieval to post-medieval trackway and ditch. Two sizable areas of quarry pitting were also located in the North Field, one undated, whilst the other was probably late medieval/early post-medieval. Other undated features were also recorded in this area. In the South Field, several pit clusters, thought to be Iron Age to Roman, were identified, alongside another large medieval/post-medieval quarry pit and several undated, but potentially later prehistoric, Roman or Anglo-Saxon ditches. An intense cluster of small postholes in one area was thought to be post-medieval and probably relate to the use of the site for agriculture/allotments in the 19th century. The most significant remains were of two Anglo-Saxon SFBs and a posthole hall, as well as the remains of another potential hall. Further undated, but probably associated pits and a post-medieval pit were recorded in this field.
