Full Description
During August 2012 Oxford Archaeology East undertook a 14 trench evaluation of the land behind the High Street, Newmarket (TL 637 632)). The majority of the trenches revealed a chalk bedrock cut by periglacial features. Features in trenches 10, 11 and 12 are likely to be associated with Early to Middle Bronze Age and Early Iron Age occupation within the north-east corner of the development area (S1) also see Pmed.
Included in the Proceedings of the Suffolk Institute of Archaeology and History annual round up of individual finds and discoveries for 2012 (S2).
