Abstract:		 A planning application is to be submitted for the development of land at Home Farm, High Street, Wrestlingworth. The trial trenching revealed a number of interesting archaeological features probably dating to the early medieval period. The features were all found in two trenches located in the north western corner of the site and comprised six ditches and one pit. The spacing and character of the ditches suggest they are probably remains of cultivation furrows and/or boundary/drainage ditches. The absence of any further occupation evidence of this date elsewhere at the site suggests the location may have been on the periphery of the medieval village. The works also found a number of sherds of Saxo-Norman pottery, most of which were residual in early medieval features. Although no archaeological features can be reliably dated to this period, the presence of the pottery is evidence that there was settlement activity in the Wrestlingworth area at this time. Other less significant remains found during the trenching included a possible post-medieval garden feature, a brick surface and a possible demolition layer both dating to the 19th Century period. All of these remains are probably associated with the sites recent history as a farm
