Full Description
2014: Norvic Archaeology was commissioned to undertake an evaluation by trial trench at 'Denbet', Mill Road, Hengrave, Suffolk. Two features were revealed at the south-eastern end of the evaluation trench. They comprised of a shallow V-shaped ditch of possible prehistoric date and a post-pit, which it partly truncated. The post-pit contained a post-setting for an upright timber post of c.0.3m diameter. A freshly preserved assemblage of worked flint was collected from the backfill against the former post. These flints include several bladelets along with a blade core fragment consistent with a Mesolithic tradition of microlith production (S1).
