Abstract:
CFA Archaeology Ltd carried out a trial trench evaluation on land at Meddler Stud, Kentford, Suffolk, on a proposed residential development. Seven trenches had been previously excavated by Oxford Archaeology East revealing alluvial material containing prehistoric flint and pottery as well as medieval ditches. The current evaluation involved excavating 25 additional trenches. At the west end of the site close to the River Kennett, alluvial hillwash that had filled natural hollows were found to contain pieces of struck Mesolithic and Neolithic flint. At the north end of the site was a large medieval ditch, possibly a boundary ditch for a former plot joining the main street. This contained a single fragment of Greyware. Various undated features including a ditch, gullies, post-holes and bioturbated pits were also found across the site; some of these are likely to relate to the former farm buildings on the site and general farm activity. Close to the bridge over the River Kennet was a large 19th century gravel extraction pit.
