Abstract:		 On 18th and 19th July 2017 Britannia Archaeology Ltd (BA) undertook a trial trench evaluation at Lowestoft Phoenix Enterprise Park, Hadenham Road, Gisleham, Lowestoft (NGR TM 529 894 - Fig.1) on behalf of Linda Wilson of Concertus, (Planning Reference TBC) in advance of a proposed redevelopment of an industrial plot. The site had a potential for prehistoric features and finds, on the basis of numerous and significant finds in the area, including evidence of Late Bronze Age to Early Iron Age settlement. Additionally, the potential to encounter the World War II anti-tank ditch was high. The evaluation revealed two phases of activity on the site. The first phase relates to the prehistoric activity on the site indicated by small pit. The pit contained burnt flint and stones and was the only archaeological feature of this date indicating limited prehistoric activity on the site. The second phase relates to the modern activity on site during WW2 in the form of an anti-tank trench found at the eastern end of trench 1. Due to its engineering industry, role as a naval base, and its south-eastern coastal location, Lowestoft was at risk of invasion during WW2 and the anti-tank trench formed part of the defences. The evaluation was successful in identifying the WW2 activity on the site and picked up the long anti-tank trench running through the area. Despite the high potential for prehistoric activity at this site only one feature was found from this period.
