NHER 66472 (Monument record) - Undated ditch or pit and other possible discrete features

October 2020-March 2021. Geophysical Survey.
Magnetometer survey of site on proposed route of Anglian Water Bexwell to Bury St Edmunds pipeline (Area 23).
This survey identified a number of discrete anomalies at the southern end of the site that potentially represent archaeologically-significant remains, although it is noted that some or all could be the result of natural variations in the underlying geology.
See report (S1) for further details.

July 2021. Desk-based Assessment.
Assessment of potentially impact of proposed Anglian Water Bexwell to Bury St Edmunds pipeline.
For further details see report (S2), which was submitted as part of the Environmental Statement for the scheme.

September 2021. Trial Trenching.
Evaluation of site on proposed route of Anglian Water Bexwell to Bury St Edmunds pipeline (Trench 88).
A single trench was excavated at the southern end of this site, which was positioned to investigate the group of discrete anomalies identified by the preceding geophysical survey. This trench coincided with two of the anomalies, the larger of which was found to have a potentially associated sub-surface feature. This was though interpreted as an east-to-west aligned ditch.
Information from draft report. Final version awaited.
