Full Description

August 1999: Evaluation on edge of Village Green (MLS 011?) located ditch (probably tenement boundary). Details to follow (S1).

During the archaeological evaluation of a green-side plot of land a north-to-south orientated ditch was recorded. While no dating evidence was recovered, the feature was thought to represent a boundary ditch between one green-side tenement and its immediate neighbour, and forming one of the north-to-south elements within a ditch complex of which much of the east-to-west orientated sections still survive as open features. Included in the Proceedings of the Suffolk Institute of Archaeology and History annual round up of individual finds and discoveries for 1999. (S2)
