Abstract:
This desk-based assessment considers the potential archaeological implications of proposed redevelopment of land adjacent to The Green, Bury Road, Barrow, Suffolk. Barrow was an important manor in the medieval period, being within the ownership of the de Clare family, a powerful Norman dynasty. The manor itself passed through several well known powerful persons during this period, including William Marshal, and was even granted a market and an annual fair. The site also lies around 200m to the south of a Scheduled Monument; that of the moated site of the original medieval Barrow Hall. The Green appears to have been central to the village, and there seems to have always been settlement around the edges of it. The development site lies close to this area, and will take in the Bury Road street frontage, currently occupied by Victorian and later buildings. It is thought to be highly likely that medieval remains will be encountered here, dependent on the impact previous below-ground disturbance during the building of the existing houses. Other periods are represented in the area, with a concentration of prehistoric finds to the north of the area and a little Roman evidence in the field to the north, which may represent cemetery remains. This possible Roman activity also has potential to be present within the boundary of the current development area. There is little Saxon evidence, although it seems likely that Barrow began its development during this period.
