Abstract: |
Archaeological monitoring of groundwork associated with the construction of an extension to the rear of 23 Duke Street, Bildeston, was undertaken during September 2010. A series of footing trenches were examined. These revealed a natural subsoil of yellow clay beneath c. 0.3m of topsoil. A large pit with a single fill of dark grey silt was noted adjacent the rear of the building. No datable finds were recovered from the fill although occasional oyster shells were present. A similar pit has been recorded in the vicinity. Bildeston is known for its medieval cloth industry and it is possibly these pits are related to production processes. |
