Abstract:		 A programme of archaeological mitigatory trenching undertaken by Pre-Construct Archaeology on Land at Green Lane East (NGR TL TG 28516 12276) from the 1st April 2019 to 10th April 2019. The archaeological work was commissioned by Lanpro prior to proposed construction works associated with residential development. The aim of the work was to characterise the archaeological potential of the proposed development area. A total of twenty-four no. 50m by 1.80m trenches were arrayed in order to give a 5% sample of the 7.8 hectare site. The mitigatory trenching identified four steep sided ditches in Trenches 13, 15, 22 and 23 all undated, except for one ([113]) located in Trench 15, but all perhaps likely to be of later Post-medieval date. Ditch [113] contained a small struck flint, thought highly likely to be residual due to the orientation of the ditch, which aligned to Green Lane East. Historic maps show no indication of field boundaries in the investigated area and it is likely that these ditches represented irrigation features. As there was no evidence of maintenance or erosion this suggested they were short-lived features. There were four irregular undated pits within Trenches 6, 13, 16 and 20 which may have had a horticultral/agricultural origin due to the absence of cultural items recovered from them.
