Excavation of the Anglo-Saxon cemetery also revealed extensive occupation evidence: late Iron Age and Roman enclosures and field boundaries, an early Roman kiln, and a small settlement of 'sunken huts' and post-hole buildings possibly contemporary with the cemetery. Full reports on the structural data, artefacts (including Iron Age and Romano-British pottery) and environmental evidence illustrate the different phases of activity. The lengthy settlement sequence, covering two 'periods of transition' — Iron Age/Roman and Roman/ Anglo-Saxon — lends the results importance, and the report makes a useful contribution to the study of rural settlement and economy in East Anglia. For earlier prehistoric occupation (7th to 2nd millennia BC) see EAA 39, 'Spong Hill Part VI'.
