Abstract: |
In December 2011 and January 2012, Archaeological Solutions Ltd carried out an archaeological trial trench evaluation of the Community Centre and Phase 4D, Cedars Park, Stowmarket, Suffolk (NGR TM 06211 58849). The evaluation was undertaken in advance of residential development by Crest Nicholson Residential (Eastern) Ltd. Two medieval (12th-14th century) ditches were excavated in the southern extent of the present area of evaluation (F1062 (Tr.16) and F1064 (Tr.18). Ditches F1037 (Tr.5) and F1067 (Tr.1) may be contemporary. Three ponds (F1029 Tr.3; F1071 Tr.5; and F1052 Tr.7) are very tentatively assigned to the medieval period. In the north-eastern sector of the evaluation four parallel agricultural ditches was observed in Trenches 1 and 2, and these closely approximate Roman ditches excavated in Phase 4B. The evaluation also revealed a continuation of the Late Bronze Age - Early Iron activity recorded during the excavation of adjacent Phase 4B. Two ditches, F1050 and F1056 (Tr.16), were recorded. In summary the evaluation recorded prehistoric, Roman and medieval archaeology broadly contemporary with that recorded during the excavation of Phase 4B, adjacent. |
