Abstract:
In June 2020, Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) carried out an archaeological evaluation of land Moat House Farm, Wyverstone Road, Long Thurlow, Badwell Ash, Suffolk The earliest feature was potentially Pit F1013 (Trench 1) which contained a light to moderately abraded medieval cooking pot rim of late 12th-14th centuries date. That said, one sherd does not date a feature. The evaluation revealed two large linear features that may represent the western (F1007 Trench 2) and southern (F1024 Trench 3) arms of the moat, infilled in the 18th-19th centuries to allow for the construction of a range of farm buildings and yard. The southern wall (M1004) of one of the former farm buildings was revealed on the northern edge of Trench 3. The wall was largely constructed from flint cobbles but had brick-built corners, and a sample of these bricks was dated to the 18th-19th century. Moat Ditch D1024 contained an oak plank which likely formed part of the internal fittings of an agricultural structure or outbuilding. An undated pit (F1029) and undated ditch (F1035) were present in Trench 3. Though undated they post-date the moat ditch (F1024) and its re-cut (F1026), and therefore date from the post-medieval period onwards.
