Roman Ixworth

Settling Ixworth Living in Ixworth Ixworth was settled in Roman times and was the site of a 1st-century AD Roman fort. The fort is believed to have been built as a response to Boudicca's revolt and appears to have been in use only until the end of the 1st century. The site measures 193 metres (633 ft) by 205 metres (673 ft) and was surrounded by three ditches After the fort went out of use a civilian settlement was established at the site, possibly with a pottery industry. Ixworth became an important junction in the Roman road system of East Anglia and the Peddars Way ran 48 miles (77 km) from Ixworth to Holme next the Sea on the north coast of Norfolk. The foundations of a Roman building with hypocaust were discovered in 1834 and are believed to be a villa and bath house complex.

Anglo-Saxon Ixworth

Buried Anglo-Saxon An early pagan cemetery with Anglo-Saxon burial urns was discovered south-west of the church some time before 1849 and a number of other post-Roman archaeological finds have been discovered in the area. In 1856 the Ixworth Cross, a gold pectoral cross covered in garnets dating from the 7th century, was discovered in what is believed to be another Anglo-Saxon cemetery. The cross is decorated using cloisonné work and was donated to the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford in 1909.] It was discovered in a rare bed burial.
