Abstract:		 The evaluation fieldwork comprised the excavation of four 27m long x 1.8m wide trenches, giving a combined trench length of c.108m. After consultation with Hannah Cutler (SCCAS), two features in Trench 1, ditches 103 and 105 were not excavated as these were interpreted as continuations of ditches 303 and 305 recorded in Trench 3. In May 2023, Cotswold Archaeology (CA) carried out an archaeological evaluation of land at Gulpher Farm, Gulpher Road, Felixstowe, Suffolk. Four trenches were excavated; three trenches revealed archaeological features. A small assemblage of prehistoric, Roman and medieval pottery, CBM, fired clay, and heat-affected flint was recovered. The pottery is highly fragmentary and no archaeological feature contained sufficient concentrations to confidently date the deposit or feature from which it was recovered. The proximity of a possible late prehistoric settlement to the south of the site may account for the residual presence of the prehistoric pottery assemblage in the subsoil, three ditches and one pit at the site. The parallel ditches revealed in Trench 1 and Trench 3 may represent part of a contemporary field system of post medieval date that was extant during the survey for the 1st edition Ordnance Survey (OS) map (1888 - 1913).
