Full Description
The excavation of four evaluation trenches in land adjacent to Coulson Lane, Brandon, revealed a substantial build up of topsoil over a colluvial soil which may have been the result of medieval, or post-medieval ploughing. Beneath this layer at the south-east corner of the site, a layer of buried sand produced struck flint and a large sherd of pottery, both of which are thought to be Neolithic. A trench alongside Coulson Lane exposed two ditches and at least one small pit which are thought to be Late Saxon (S1).
Included in the Proceedings of the Suffolk Institute of Archaeology and History annual round up of individual finds and discoveries for 2002 (S2)
