Abstract:
NPS Archaeology was commissioned by Mrs E. Willgress to carry out an archaeological evaluation by trial trenching in advance of a proposal to construct five new dwellings at Church View, Fleggburgh (TG4445 1414). Six 30m x 1.80m trenches were excavated to provide a 5% sample of the total development area (6,568m2). Two ditches and two pits were identified cut into the natural geology and sealed by a thick layer of subsoil. The thick layer of subsoil present over the whole site was perhaps the result of intensive arable use of the area and associated manure spreading. The archaeological features appeared in a good state of preservation and were sealed by overburden soils in excess of 0.70m deep. One ditch appeared in two separate trenches, aligned south-east to north-west and contained two sherds of Iron Age pottery. The ditch did not align to existing field boundaries and possibly represented part of an earlier field system. The second ditch shared the same alignment as the modern field system and so was probably comparatively late in date. The two pits were not dated, but one contained a bovine skeleton, which was probably of relatively recent date.
