Abstract:
During June 2007, Archaeological Services and Consultancy Ltd undertook an evaluation on c.800m of an easement in advance of a new water main being installed to the southwest of Little Cornard, Suffolk. Initially ten 30m trenches were excavated using a mechanical excavator. Previous work by Michael Matthews a local amateur archaeologist immediately to the east of the site including a geophysical survey and limited excavation has identified a substantial prehistoric and Romano-British field system and at least one Roman tile kiln. Within the evaluation area only one trench revealed any archaeology comprising four roughly east to west aligned ditches. Three of the ditches, although undated, are likely to be a continuation of the site to the east. The fourth ditch contained a sectional field drain in its base, probably indicating that it was open during the 19th century. Following the evaluation a strip and record excavation was undertaken on a 150m stretch of the easement in the area where the ditches had been revealed. Further Romano-British ditches and pits were exposed and an additional late ditch, again containing a field drain in its base. From the available evidence it was concluded that there were two phases of late Iron Age/ Roman field boundaries. A third phase of ditches continued in use until the 19th century when they were filled in.
