Full Description

AW PIPELINE evaluation Trench 173 revealed a possible Post Medieval field boundary. The ditch is positioned on a north-west to south-west alignment and contained no finds. It has been truncated by a modern land drain. The ditch may correspond to a field boundary observed on the First Edition Ordnance Survey map, although the trench does appear to be a little further north and the ditch is on a slightly different alignment (S1) (S2).

Included in the Proceedings of the Suffolk Institute of Archaeology and History annual round up of individual finds and discoveries for 2013 (S3)

Archaeological desk based assessment of the route of the water main (S4).
