Abstract:
Report on a survey of the Ministry of Defence's Stanford Training Area (STANTA) covering both arable land and wooded areas. The results provide insight into the archaeology of central Breckland, especially with regard to earthworks concealed by woodland. The tally of fieldwalking finds is less impressive than that from the more northerly STANTA Extension. This is probably because the present survey covered much less arable land, almost all of which was peripheral to the former settlements which lie under grass. Had it been possible to examine all of the river valley terraces upon which settlements lay, it is argued that finds more closely comparable to those from the Extension might have been made, and that results from Langford and West Tofts offer some hints of this. The low level of finds on the surveyed arable reflects the former regime of heathlands, warrens and `brecks', only one area, in the northeast corner of the surveyed area, appearing to be an exception. The limitations imposed upon the scope of the woodland survey prevented fuller examination of earthworks surviving on areas of grassland.
