Abstract: |
In January 2007, Archaeological Solutions carried out two small open area excavations on land off Moulton Road, Newmarket, Suffolk (NGR TL 6660 6420 (Area A) and TL 6820 6435 (Area D)). The excavations focused on areas of archaeological potential identified during the trial trench evaluation of the site. Excavation Area A (20m x 20m) was centred on Pit F1010 in Evaluation Trench 6; Excavation Area D (30m x 30m) was centred on the findspot of a Bronze Age Collared Urn (Context 1004) found in Trench 11. The excavation found three archaeological features, all located in Area A. All were shallow and contained little dating evidence. A moderate assemblage of late Neolithic/early Bronze Age pottery recovered from the subsoil in the area suggested that prehistoric features had been truncated by post-medieval agricultural activity. The Area D excavation revealed no archaeological features and no further evidence of Bronze Age funerary or settlement activity. |
