Abstract:
In January and February 2021, Cotswold Archaeology carried out an archaeological evaluation on land south of Chediston Street, Halesworth, Suffolk, a total of sixty-six trenches were excavated. Archaeological deposits ranging in date from the Early Neolithic through to the post medieval periods were identified in thirty-four of the trenches. Characteristically dispersed prehistoric activity was shown across the site with both stratified Early Neolithic to Bronze Age pottery recovered from discrete features and worked flint present residually in later features. An anomaly identified by an earlier geophysical survey and targeted by trenches was revealed to be a Roman ditch which enclosed the higher ground in the south-eastern corner of the site. Further anomalies were shown to coincide with pits containing Roman pottery and Ceramic Building Material. The amount of Roman CBM recovered was sufficient to suggest the possibility of a building within the vicinity of this part of the site. The location of post -medieval field boundary ditches, shown on historic mapping was confirmed while likely contemporary extraction pits were identified at the southern edge of the site, in the natural clay deposits on the higher ground.
