Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	In July 207, Archaeological Solutions conducted an archaeological evaluation of land at Parkers Mill, Mill Street, Mildenhall, Suffolk (NGR TL 7093 7436). The evaluation was undertaken in response to a planning condition (F/2006/1030/FUL) applied to a residential redevelopment of the site. Parkers Mill is situated on the north side of the river Lark, on a leat running roughly parallel to the river. The Domesday Book refers to a mill in Mildenhall, possibly in this location (SMR MNL455). The present mill building is still standing, as is Mill House, which is scheduled. The trial trench evaluation found features ranging from Saxo-Norman (c.AD 850 - 1150) to late medieval/early post-medieval (AD 1400-1600) in date. These were concentrated mainly in the northern corner of the site (Trenches 1-4) and comprised ditches, gullies, pits and postholes. There were generally few finds, suggesting that the area was on the periphery of the medieval settlement. However, one later medieval (c. AD 1400) rubbish/ cess pit yielded a large animal bone assemblage including articulated elements from at least six cattle. The centre of the site (Trenches 5-9) was found to be heavily truncated from the buildings which formerly occupied the site. The sourthern edge of the site, adjacent to the mill stream, was devoid of archaeology, although only a small portion of this area was investigated. A palaeo-environmental assessment undertaken during the fieldwork found that peat deposits adjacent to the mill channel were relatively shallow; no waterlogged deposits were encountered.
