Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology between October and November 2009 on land off Recreation Way, Mildenhall, Suffolk. Thirteen trenches were excavated. The archaeological evaluation identified the presence of archaeological deposits throughout the development area, ranging from prehistoric to modern in date. It has also identified a series of alluvial and peat layers within the southern part of the site. Artefacts recovered during the evaluation included pottery, animal bone and daub. Archaeological features dating to the Mid to Late Iron Age include probable quarry pits and a number of ditches, possibly for drainage. Similar features of Roman date were also encountered. A pit containing a single sherd of pottery possibly dated to the 5th to 8th centuries AD could indicate Anglo-Saxon occupation. Layers of peat, dated as medieval, seal the earlier features within the southern part of the site. Burnt daub post-dating the formation of the peat layer, and presumably the remains of a structure, was also recovered. The use of the northern part of the site in the modern period is indicated by a number of features including pits and a brick surface which post-dates 1900.
