Full Description

1992: One sherd stamped Ipswich ware from Priory site via S West (S1)(S2).
Also see BLB Misc (msf1892) for whalebone writing tablet and three styli probably from this area.
Also further Ipswich Ware in adjoining fields on north (BLB 016 & 075) and probably finds of stylus and sceats etc from same field (see BLB Misc MSF 21799) suggests significant Middle & Late Saxon religious site (or palace? - see possible connection to King Anna - MSF 1895 & 14938).
