Abstract: |
An evaluation to assess the archaeological potential of land to the south of Grove Hill, Belstead, Suffolk, a 2.3ha area of light woodland and open scrub, was carried out to assess the impact of a proposed residential development on heritage assets. The evaluation has identified residual evidence of early prehistoric activity across the site, and a small but more definite phase of Late Iron Age/Roman activity in the northern part, with a series of ditches indicating systems of probable agricultural land management and material likely deriving from an area of nearby settlement.. During the medieval and post-medieval periods the site is likely to have been in agricultural use, with small quantities of material in the subsoil and topsoil has presumably deriving from the nearby settlement of Belstead. |
