This area is set up with a large hall in the middle of the village surrounded by other houses and structures.

This suggests a tight-knit community, with the inhabitants using the large hall for events such as feasts and story-telling.

The people of this area still traded with their homeland, as is evidenced by the glass in the necklaces and other metals that were found at the site, but not produced locally.

The remains of circular huts with ditched enclosures suggest occupation by Iron Age farmers.

The archaeologists revealed that the village moved the mile or so east to its current location following Christianisation.

Alongside the recreated village are the archaeological collections formerly housed at Moyse's Hall Museum Bury St Edmunds.
