Full Description

2006: Evaluation was carried out across 5 sites, at this site, Area D, an inverted collared urn was located, which was potentially thought to relate to Bronze Age funerary activity. This area was subsequently excavated however no archaeological finds or features were located. A low-level of prehistoric activity can be inferred from the evidence recorded during the evaluation and excavtion, however it appears that features have been truncated by post-medieval agricultural activity (S1, S2).
Included in the Proceedings of the Suffolk Institute of Archaeology and History annual round up of individual finds and discoveries for 2007 (S7).
