Abstract: |
In October 2020, Cotswold Archaeology carried out an archaeological evaluation on land east of Rag Cottage at Harkstead, Suffolk, ahead of the construction of an agricultural reservoir. No archaeological deposits were revealed within the fourteen excavated trenches with the single feature recorded being a land drain. Seven metal artefacts were recovered through metal detecting of the upcast topsoil, but no other finds were collected and no environmental samples were taken. Agricultural disturbance associated with the recent potato harvest was evident truncating the natural substrate in all the trenches with wheel ruts and cultivation rows present alongside older plough scars and land drains. |
