Abstract:
Twenty-three archaeological trial trenches excavated at Land off Bramford Road, Sprougton, ahead of a proposed housing development. The northern part of the site was found to contain a series of silt-filled palaeo-channels, which can be traced on the results of a previous geophysical survey, alongside a medieval ditch and two undated pits. The southern half of the site contained a ring-ditch representing the remains of a Bronze Age round barrow, alongside two ditches that may form part of a possible late Saxon enclosure system. A large 12th century medieval ditch was also found within this area, which might be related to a former boundary along the back of the nearby Sproughton Hall. The trenches along the far southern end of the site contained a series of 19th and 20th century rubbish pits, possibly associated with the houses which line the north side of Lower Street. Several undated pits and postholes, and an undated ditch, were also found.
