Abstract: |
Archaeological excavation had been completed at Swallowfields. The site formed part of the housing allocation area of the Lowestoft Local Plan. The area of the current planning application covered c.2.8ha of set-aside, former arable land on the south-eastern edge of Carlton Colville. Within this, the main excavation area comprised 4000 sq m at the north-east of the site with further trenching to the south-west on the line of the future access roads. The archaeology revealed fell into three broad periods, prehistoric, Romano-British and medieval/post-medieval. The prehistoric element consisted of pottery and worked flint in subsoil or as residual material within later features, the Romano-British saw a continuation of a previously recorded trackway and field system and the medieval/post-medieval comprised enclosure ditches, finds scatters and a large quarry.
