Abstract:
Excavation was undertaken ahead of the construction of the A140 Scole Bypass, located on the fringes of the Romano-British settlement which grew up at the junction of the River Waveney and the main road between Venta Icenorum and Camulodunum. Prehistoric features comprised a mound of potboilers sealed in waterlogged conditions beneath riverside peat deposits and worked flints and a single roundhouse from the first century BC, possibly associated with a series of small enclosures, sealed by later Romano-British features. Evidence of the Romano-British suburb which occupied this site in the first four centuries AD comprised a main road with a row of rectangular clay-floored buildings fronting on to it, subsidiary roads, several possible post-hole buildings, evidence of a variety craft and industrial activities, and a small inhumation and cremation cemetery. A metal detector survey of the site recovered over 2000 items dating from the first century AD to the early fifth century AD. In the north of the site a medieval quarry and post-medieval field ditches were also excavated.[Au(abr)]
