Abstract: |
Between the 3rd of August and 1st of September 2017 Oxford Archaeology carried out an excavation on land to the north of Green Lane, Reydon, Suffolk (TM 498 779). An area of 2562m2 was excavated around the part of the site where the densest archaeology was identified during a previous evaluation (Cox 2017). Five phases of activity were revealed by the excavation, the majority of which relate to a series of ditched boundaries that were altered and realigned over a period spanning the 13th-15th centuries. Earlier activity was represented by an undated but possibly prehistoric fire pit containing burnt flint; possibly contemporary with three undated gullies. A background scatter of residual prehistoric pottery and lithics along with Roman CBM was also recovered. The sequence of boundaries and other features appear to relate to activity on the periphery of medieval settlement, initially associated with the green-edge development to the east and subsequently with Green Lane to the south. After the 15th century the site reverted to agriculture and the field boundaries remained largely unchanged until relatively recently. |
