Abstract:
An evaluation was carried out by OA East from the 3rd September to 4th October 2012, on land to the north of Walton High Street, Felixstowe, Suffolk, Grid ref. TM 29051 36114. A total of 91 trenches were excavated which revealed evidence for activity on the site that spanned the Prehistoric to Medieval periods. Of particular archaeological interest was the discovery of elements of a Early/Middle Bronze Age ritual funerary landscape that included a well preserved putative barrow and associated features such as secondary cremations. Evidence for an agricultural landscape, along with possible beginnings of settlement in the form of post holes and possible round houses, was also recovered. Occupation of the site appears to have continued into the late Bronze Age/Early Iron Age with the presence of at least one settlement area with a good, well preserved assemblage of pottery and other finds directly associated with settlement features. Subsequently it appears that low level activity, predominantly agricultural in nature, continued on the site into the Post Medieval period.
