Monument record SKT 140 - Early to Mid Iron Age pits and a Roman ditch at Site 3C Land South Of Gun Cotton Way Stowmarket

Geophysical survey of the site suggested few features within the site, but features dating to the Iron Age, Romano-British and post-medieval periods were identified within 6 of 20 evaluation trenches, including a pit cluster dating to the Early/Middle Iron Age. A mitigation area of 15m2 was centred on this which revealed its full extent and no further remains. The cluster is most likely associated with the Iron Age and Romano-British site found to the N of the site during the Cedars Park Phase 3 works. A single ditch was the only Romano-British feature. A likely post-medieval track comprising wheel-rutting and a probable trackside ditch, and a large boundary ditch, were identified in the geophysical survey and the historic mapping (S1). (S2)
