Abstract:
Between September 2017 and March 2018 Oxford Archaeology East (OA East) carried out two separate phases of excavation at land at Eye Airfield Industrial Estate, near Yaxley in Suffolk. The excavations revealed remains spanning the Bronze Age through to the post-medieval period. Bronze age activity included the remains of a burnt mound in Area 3 associated with a large pond from which pollen evidence showed had been open when the surrounding land had been open grassland, and not secluded woodland. Iron Age into early Romano-British remains were evident in four roundhouse eaves drip gullies alongside smaller structures, indicated by smaller ring-gullies and postholes, uncovered in the western end of Area 3. Activity appeared to increase into the Roman period with a trackway in Area 2B alongside enclosures with similar features replacing the roundhouses in Area 3, along with spreads of domestic waste alongside small pits and post holes. A decrease in activity is evidenced in the later Roman period, seen in the presence of enclosures in Area 2A and a rectilinear ditch system in Area 3, truncating the earlier enclosures. All of this is overlain by field systems and small-scale pitting activities dating to the medieval and post-medieval periods, witch activity likely being most intensive in the 12th-13th centuries.
