Abstract:		 An archaeological excavation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in April and May 2020 at Brome, Suffolk. The excavation area was located at the western end of the development area, targeted on a Late Iron Age/Roman ditch that produced a large assemblage of pottery, identified in a previous evaluation of the site. The excavation and evaluation identified three periods of activity in the Early Roman period, Post-medieval and modern periods. The earliest finds from the site are two sherds of LBA-EIA pottery and few flint flakes found as residual finds within later features whilst settlement evidence of the Early Roman period is defined by an enclosure ditch and single pit that contained a large assemblage of pottery. The enclosure appears to have been cut by the line of the A140 (the former Roman Road) thus suggesting that whilst the ditch was filled in the early Roman period, the use of the enclosure may date to the Late Iron Age, immediately before the road was constructed. The presence of post-medieval ditches with limited finds suggests the site was located in open fields during this time and the presence of modern pits likely relate to improvements to the A140 or to the construction and demolition of Eye Airfield prior to and after WW2.
