Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation (two trial-trenches) was carried in advance of the construction of two new dwellings.
All work carried out by CAT will be in accordance with:
• professional standards of the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists, including its Code of Conduct (CIfA 2014a-c)
• Standards for Field Archaeology in the East of England (Gurney 2003)
• Regional research and resource frameworks for the East of England (Medlycott 2011 and https://researchframeworks.org/eoe/)
• relevant Health & Safety guidelines and requirements (CAT 2021), including a Risk Assessment which will be carried out before the evaluation begins.
• the Project Brief issued by SCCAS (2021a)
• The outline specification within Requirements for a Trenched Archaeological Evaluation (SCCAS 2021b) to be used alongside the Project Brief. An archaeological evaluation (two trial-trenches) was carried out on land at 16 Martyns Rise, Long Melford, Suffolk in advance of the construction of two new dwellings. The site was just outside the
village of Long Melford, which was a substantial Roman settlement. Cropmarks were found south-east of the site and interpreted as a possible villa. There is also evidence of medieval and postmedieval activity nearby to the site. Despite this, no archaeological remains or features were found during the evaluation. |
