Monument record NRN 021 - OUTLINE RECORD: EXCAV (TRIAL TR) - MEL BIRCH (SAFG)

2010: Fieldwalking of a known Roman site in Church Field took place prior to test trenching by the AOC Archaeology Group from London, conforming its location and area of concentration. A small exploratory trench was cut in the grounds of the Old Rectory to ascertain if the Roman occupation extended E and perhaps under the Rectory itself. To the S, in Church Meadow, a small excavation took place to identify the source of a spread of flints and Roman building material. A compact flint ‘yard’ was exposed. Included in the Proceedings of the Suffolk Institute of Archaeology and History annual round up of individual finds and discoveries for 2010 (S1).
