Abstract: |
In February 2008, Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) conducted an archaeological trial trench evaluation at Site C4, Suffolk Business Park, Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk (TL 882 637). The investigation was commissioned by Chaplin Farrant Ltd on behalf of Citygate Developments Ltd to comply with a planning condition in advance of proposed industrial development (Planning Application No: SE/07/1179). Nine archaeological features were recorded at the site, comprising pits and ditches. The features are undated. Only Ditch F1019 contained a small fragment of animal bone. The majority of the features were located in the northern half of the site. The site had a relatively high potential for prehistoric archaeology. To the north of the site, within Area B of Suffolk Business Park, an excavation revealed prehistoric features containing pottery and worked flint. An occupation layer was also found (Site RGH 044). In the event small scale undated features were revealed. The cartographic evidence does not show any boundaries crossing the site before 1813, which is the earliest map for the area, and Ditches F1005, F1019, and F1021 cound not readily be related to any known modern boundaries. Despite the site's potential little archaeological material was revealed. |
