Abstract:		 An evaluation was carried out at a proposed development site which lay within a Scheduled area. Palaeolithic and Neolithic finds had been made in the vicinity of Ardleigh, and the site lay adjacent to a regionally and nationally important funerary landscape of Early, Middle and Late Bronze Age date. Iron Age activity in the vicinity was represented by a complex of ditched trackways, enclosures and a small group of cremation burials, whilst Roman use of the area had been extensive. During the evaluation, a small, unurned cremation burial of possible prehistoric date was recorded, and residual finds of prehistoric calcined bone, struck flint and pottery were recovered. These included a sherd of hand-made Late Iron Age pottery. Three ditches and a small circular pit, all of Roman date, were also recorded. These had been sealed by a layer believed to have represented a former ploughsoil of Roman or post-Roman date, and which produced residual Roman pottery and coins. Modern truncation was noted. [AIP]
