Abstract: |
In August 2018 an archaeological trial trench evaluation was undertaken at a site located on land northeast of Anson Road, Martlesham Heath, Suffolk prior to the construction of a Travis Perkins commercial unit. Five archaeologically supervised trenches were excavated within the footprint of the proposed development area. The works revealed a modern pit and the walls of a two room brick building, within Trench 4, that likely relate to when the site formed part of Martlesham Heath airfield in the inter war period. Three undated ditches were also identified. Ditch 0013, in Trench 2, was identified just to the south of an extant earthwork bank both of which were aligned with a boundary identified on the 1st edition OS map of 1881 that formed a trapezoid shaped enclosure. The further two undated ditches, identified in Trench 3, may represent the remnant of a field system of pre-post medieval in date. |
