Abstract: |
Preston St Mary, Manor Farm, Lavenham Road (PSM 001, TL 9278 5069) monitoring of ground works for two extensions, drainage pipe trenches and internal alterations recorded a ditch of uncertain date, a clay built oven of probable medieval date and a 19th century well within the area of the moated island. While all of the finds were unstratified the moderately large pottery group hints at an Iron Age presence with a single rim sherd before medieval activity commenced in the 11th/12th century period. The ceramic sequence is then continuous to the present with a typical south Suffolk group for the medieval period and some evidence of moderate to high status in the 16th/17th century and it is noteworthy that the house is dated to the mid 17th century. |
