Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	Two archaeological sites (Sites 1 and 2) were excavated prior to the construction of a new lagoon (Lagoon B) by Anglian Water Services. Site 1 was a large, sub-rectangular Iron Age enclosure with a small ring ditch, probably the remains of a roundhouse, located outside the entrance on its eastern side. Pottery from the enclosure ditch suggests that it dates to the end of the middle Iron Age, the 2nd and 1st centuries BC. Approximately 150m to the south-west of Site 1 were the remains of a circular stone building, probably a Romano-British shrine (Site 2). It was constructed in the 2nd century AD and was surrounded by a rectangular enclosure. The building contained over 200 Roman coins, part of a bronze figurine, probably of the goddess Minerva or the god Mars, a lead curse tablet, Roman pottery vessels, and animal bone, some of it articulated. At the end of the 2nd century the enclosure was replaced by a more substantial ditched enclosure and an additional, smaller enclosure, containing a small rectangular timber building, was constructed to the north. The shrine fell out of use towards the end of the 4th or early in the 5th century AD. A grave in the centre of the circular building, containing the remains of a young adult male, probably dates to the 5th or 6th century AD. The furrows of a medieval open-field system were also identified.
