Abstract:		 This report presents the results of research carried out by Witham Archaeology in relation to the redevelopment of Abbey Estate, Thetford. The report, commissioned Flagship Housing, will inform the local planning authority in deciding the scope of for further archaeological works prior to the determination of a planning application. The area of the proposed development, covering approximately 36 hectares, is located at the north-western edge of Thetford. Most of the area of the Site is occupied by a housing estate, built from mid 20th century. Spot finds have been made within Abbey Estate dating to the Prehistoric, Roman and medieval periods, Areas of significant archaeological remains have been identified in the nearby area, including Abbey Heath to the west of the Site, where over 6000 prehistoric flint implements were found and the scheduled sites of the medieval Cluniac Priory to the east, the remains of the Roman settlement and Saxon town. This investigation identified a high potential for archaeology remains to be present on the Site.
