Abstract:		 In April 2016 Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) carried out an archaeological evaluation at Lion Road, Palgrave, Suffolk (NGR TM 112 783). The evaluation was required to be carried out prior to the determination of a planning application for the residential development of the site (Mid Suffolk District Council Planning Ref. 4195/15), based on advice from Suffolk County Council Archaeological Service Conservation Team (SCC AS-CT). The development site is located on the edge of the historic core of Palgrave, on the southern side of Lion Road, and scatters of finds of Roman, Saxon and medieval date (PAL 041 and 046) have been found in its vicinity indicating a potential for activity of this date on the site. Features were recorded in the majority of the trial trenches. Trenches 1, 3 and 4 in the western half of the site were sterile. The density of features varied from one (Trench 10), two (Trenches 2, 5, 7 and 9), three (Trench 8) and five (Trench 6). The features comprised ditches or ditch terminals (10), pits (4) and post holes (3). Dating evidence was sparse; just five sherds of pottery and the pottery was variously abraded. Though sparse the dating evidence was consistently medieval (11th -13th and 12th - 14th century). Associated finds were sparse; just one fragment of animal bone. The features with pottery were broadly in the central and eastern sectors of the site (Trenches 5, 7 and 9). Technically the earliest period represented was prehistoric. Topsoil L1000 contained a horseshoe scraper, and Subsoil L1001 contained a fragment from a single platform blade core. The core may date to the early Neolithic period, and the scraper may date from the early Neolithic to early Bronze Age
