West Stanley. West Stow, Suffolk: The Prehistoric and Romano-British Occupations

Suffolk County Planning Department, 1989. — 128 p. — (East Anglian Archaeology 48).This volume constitutes the second part of the report on the excavations at West Stow, carried out by the author between 1965 and 1972. Extensive earlier occupations of the site were revealed by that excavation and form the subject matter of this report; the Mesolithic industry; the Late Neolithic cemetery; the Iron Age settlement and the Romano-British pottery industry; being important to local studies, each in their own right. After the Anglo-Saxon settlement (West 1985) decayed, in the 7th century, the site remained unoccupied until it was ploughed for a time in the 13th century. Following a sand-blow the area reverted to heathland and remained undisturbed until the 19th century.
