Abstract:		 Wessex Archaeology was commissioned to complete an archaeological excavation on land between Sutton Bridge and Windsor Farm, to the south-east of Queen Camel, Somerset. The investigation formed part of a programme of archaeological works required by the Planning Authority in advance of a solar PV development. In late 2014, the initial archaeological contractor (Context One Archaeological Services) opened five excavation areas targeted on previously identified geophysical anomalies before having to withdraw from the project. Wessex Archaeology subsequently assumed responsibility, undertaking the remainder of the fieldwork. Residual probable Mesolithic and other pre-Bronze Age worked flint suggest a background of prehistoric activity in the wider area. Pottery found within another sequence of ring-gullies, a post-pit, and a number of ditches indicate a small Middle Bronze Age farmstead and associated rectilinear field system (Areas 2, 4 and 5). Two overlapping ring-gullies and a cluster of postholes in Area 3 are almost certainly prehistoric. Remnants of extensive medieval/post-medieval ridge and furrow were also in evidence across the Site. These findings broadly correspond with the patterns of archaeological activity discussed in the South Cadbury Environs Project (Tabor 2002; 2004), and with those encountered during Wessex Archaeology's West Camel Road excavations, c. 1km to the west (WA 2015). As such they may, in consultation with the Planning Authority, warrant further consideration and publication.
