Abstract:		 In June 2015 Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) carried out an archaeological evaluation at land off Kingfisher Drive, Great Blakenham, Suffolk (NGR TM 116 507). The evaluation was undertaken in advance of the proposed construction a new residential development. The evaluation is required to comply with a planning condition attached to planning approval (Mid Suffolk District Council Ref. 0210/15) which requires a programme of archaeological work, based on advice from Suffolk County Council Archaeological Service Conservation Team (SCC AS-CT). The earliest period recorded during the evaluation is prehistoric (Neolithic or later) represented by the sparse struck flint from the topsoil and residual within features. Six quarry pits (F1026, F1028, F1032, F1037, F1044 = F1047 and F1049) of varying size were recorded in the south-eastern sector of the site (Trench 6). The pits were largely devoid of finds. F1037 contained eight sherds of Roman (3rd - 4th century) pottery (121g) which tentatively dates the feature and possibly the other quarry pits. A field system of ditches orientated north-west/south-east (F1004 (Trench 1) and F1006 (Trench 2)) and north-east/south-west (F1008 and F1011 (Trench 3) and F1022 (Trench 7) was recorded. Re-cutting of the ditches was evident (F1014 (Trench 3) and F1024 (Trench 7). Sparse finds were present including some animal bone. Re-cut F1014 (Trench 3) contained three sherds of residual Roman pottery. F1004 (Trench 1) contained a clay pipe stem fragment and these ditches are likely post-medieval.
