Abstract:		 On the 25th to 28th May 2015, Britannia Archaeology Ltd (BA) undertook an archaeological investigation by means of a trial trench evaluation on land north of Mildenhall Road, West Row, Mildenhall, Suffolk, (TL 676 762) , in advance of the construction of housing and associated works. The archaeological background search suggested that the site had a specific potential for Roman and medieval features and finds relating to the medieval core of the village and Roman settlement activity to the north. The evaluation revealed two undated features in the north-east corner, but otherwise showed a distinct lack of activity on the majority of the site. Pit 1006 had the characteristics of a late Iron Age storage pit, later used for waste disposal, as seen on similar sites in the area such as Bridge House Dairies, Mildenhall (Adams et al, 2012), however the lack of dating evidence from this feature is somewhat unusual if it does fall into this category. Ditch 1003 was most likely a boundary ditch. Its alignment and close proximity with the existing boundary would suggest a more recent date, probably post-medieval, however the lack of dating evidence precludes any firm conclusions. The site spans a former chalk ridge or headland on the edge of the Fens which are known to be popular locations for prehistoric settlement; however in this case, the results of the evaluation indicate that any significant archaeological activity probably lies to the north-east of the site which is located on the periphery.
