Abstract:		 Archaeological monitoring was undertaken during drainage works At St John the Baptist Church, Bressingham, May 2017 The monitoring work led to the recording of mortar foundation deposits at the north side of the chancel and north aisle and at the east end of the south aisle. It is possible that the presence of mortar foundation deposits beneath the chancel wall suggests that an earlier wall existed in the vicinity. Three post-holes excavated near the tower and north-west corner of the building may represent the position of scaffolding during building work in the post-medieval period. At least thirty burials were recorded, all of them within the area of a trench for a new soakaway north of the church. Other burials were unexcavated as they lay beneath the level required by the drainage works. Finds recovered from the site during the work include prehistoric struck flints, pottery of later Neolithic earlier Bronze Age, Iron Age, Roman and ?Late Saxon/medieval date, some small fragments of fired clay including a piece from a possible Saxon loomweight, fragments of post-medieval floor and roof tile and brick, and fragments of clay tobacco pipe and animal bone. The human remains were reburied by the Vicar below the north path and immediately to the north of trench from which most of them came.
