Between 5th of April and the 21st of May 2021 Oxford Archaeology East carried out a trial trench evaluation and excavation work on land to the south of Gipping Road, Stowupland, Suffolk, ahead of a proposed residential development. A total of 29 trial trenches up to 30m in length were opened which revealed a number of medieval ditches, mostly concentrated in the south-west corner of the field; their presence resulted in a 0.7ha excavation at that location. A subsequent extension to the area was undertaken between 14th-18th June along the western edge of the development site. The excavation exposed a medieval farmstead consisting of field boundary ditches, enclosures and rectangular post-built structures. The farmstead went through two distinct phases of activity through the 11th to 13th centuries before being abandoned during the 14th century when a north to south aligned trackway ran across it. A large assemblage of pottery dating from the 11th to 14th century was recovered along with a small amount of residual Middle Bronze Age pottery which had probably been disturbed from a nearby truncated feature. Several segments of the medieval enclosure ditches had been used to dump a large quantity of charred cereal grain processing waste.
