Abstract:		 The trial-trench evaluation of the c.4ha site uncovered a low density of ditches and pits, dating to the Late Prehistoric, Late Saxon/medieval, 15th-16th century and post-medieval periods. The majority of these features were identified by the previous geophysical survey of the site. Evidence of early activity was limited and comprised a single pit of Late Bronze Age date, and two ditches and a pit of Late Saxon/medieval date within the centre and east of the site. While the finds are sparse, they provide evidence of earlier land use in this area of the site. A focus of 15th-/16th-century activity was located in the northwest of the site and bounded by an enclosure ditch, which was utilised until the late 19th century. A possible tile-built structure may represent evidence of a kiln, suggestive of small-scale industrial activity. Other features within this enclosure included a large quarry pit, as well as smaller undated pits, which likely originated from this period. These features are most likely the remains of small-scale activity associated with Elmswell Hall to the immediate north of the site. Analysis of late 18th- and 19th-century maps demonstrates that the extant boundaries and the nature of land use have not changed since at least that time, except for the removal of the bounded area during the second half of the 19th century.
