Abstract:		 This assessment contains the results of excavations carried out at Windsor Circle and Halifax Street, RAF Lakenheath, Eriswell. The report assesses their potential and significance, as applied to specific research questions. Both these sites have the potential to contribute to the ongoing overall studies of RAF Lakenheath. A Bronze Age cremation, as well as Iron Age and Roman field systems and settlement evidence was found on both sites. Of particular significance is the later Iron Age enclosure and field system at site ERL 213, which appears to be contemporary with the extensive pit group found at ERL 147, and offers the opportunity to help interpret the function of the pits and put them into the context of a wider Iron Age landscape. The eight post structure found at ERL 217 is a typical Roman building style, but the first of its type (and one of very few of Roman date found at RAF Lakenheath despite the otherwise extensive evidence for Roman settlement) to be found at RAF Lakenheath. The activity in this area appears to stop in the early 2nd century AD, and the evidence for the structure and enclosures from ERL 217, when examined alongside that of the neighbouring sites, ERL 089, 111, 129 and 211 has significant potential for contributing to an understanding of what this activity represents and why it stopped, when we know that Roman settlement at Caudle head flourished, until the end of the early 5th century.
