Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was carried out in advance of housing development and the relocation of the rugby ground on land off Bures Road. Located on the site of the rugby ground were two burial mounds of prehistoric date. The evaluation identified a concentration of features including the corner of an enclosure ditch, a linear ditch and a group of pits in close proximity to each other, suggesting a focus of activity to the north of the sample area with a low density of dispersed small pits beyond that. Flint and quartz sand-tempered pottery and struck flint suggested an Early Bronze Age date for the features and a presence on the site from the Palaeolithic period. [Au(abr)] |
