Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in October 2016 at the site of the proposed Suffolk Business Park Extension, Bury St Edmunds. Fifty four trenches were excavated. The majority of the evaluation trenches did not encounter archaeological deposits. In a small number of trenches archaeological remains were recorded. The earliest artefactual material recovered during the evaluation consisted of Early Neolithic flint, associated struck flakes and debitage recovered from localised deposits of colluvium in the eastern part of the site. A large pit, tentatively ascribed to the Neolithic, was recorded in the south-eastern corner of the site and contained a well stratified assemblage of flint flakes from several fills. In the north-western part of the site, parallel double ditches were interpreted as a continuation of a known Middle Iron Age boundary ditch recorded during previous investigation immediately to the north of the site. Three small isolated pits containing charred wood were dated to the 8th to 10th centuries AD through radiocarbon dating, fruit pips, worked and burnt flint were also recovered.
