Abstract:
Between February and April 2015 Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) conducted an archaeological excavation on land off Lime Avenue, Oulton, Suffolk. The excavation was commissioned by Persimmons Homes Ltd and was undertaken in advance of the proposed residential development of the site. The excavation was preceded by a geophysical survey and trial trench evaluation, also conducted by AS. As was suggested by the forerunning evaluation, the excavation revealed abundant evidence of activity dating to the late Bronze Age/ early Iron Age and early to middle Anglo-Saxon period. Evidence of Romano-British, middle to late Anglo-Saxon and Saxo-Norman/ medieval occupation/ activity was also encountered. Other periods were more sparsely represented. Of particular significance were a late Bronze Age/ early Iron Age enclosure system, a Romano-British enclosure, hearths and a post-built structure, five Anglo-Saxon sunken-featured buildings and five burn flint pits, also of Anglo-Saxon date. A middle to late Anglo-Saxon enclosure, a post and beam slot structure and a Saxo-Norman/ medieval metal working area were also recorded. Notable small finds comprise eight late Anglo-Saxon/ Viking Age scale weights with embedded silver coins.
