Abstract:		 An archaeological excavation of 4.67ha in advance of the construction of a new playing field at Hartismere High School, Eye. Identified evidence of occupation from the earlier Neolithic until the post-medieval periods, of which the most significant was evidence of an early Anglo-Saxon settlement. Evidence of dispersed early Anglo-Saxon settlement was found across the majority of the excavation area, consisting of two earth-fast posthole buildings and at least eighteen Sunken Featured Buildings. A trackway bisected the centre of the site, north to south, possibly from the Roman or Saxon period. Sixteen shallow rectangular flint burning pits, i.e. pits with charcoal in the base below burnt flints were scattered across the entire site. Four Late Neolithic/Early Bronze Age cremations were found along the north edge of the site, and an undated crouched inhumation in the east half of the site is suspected of being the same date. There were two groups of Later Bronze Age/Earlier Iron Age pits and two round houses probably of the same date. Large assemblages of LBA and EIA pottery were recovered from the site. Evidence of Roman occupation on this site was restricted to stray finds and a single possible Roman feature. Evidence post-dating the early Anglo-Saxon is sparse. A later field system, which is largely undated, cuts across the site.
