Abstract:
In January and May 2009, Archaeological Solutions Ltd conducted an archaeological evaluation of land off Quay Street, Halesworth, Suffolk, Phases I and II. Planning consent has been granted by Waveney District Council for the re-development of the former Ridgeons premise. The desk-based assessment demonstrated a predominantly industrial heritage to this former canal-side site. Phase I of the evaluation revealed well preserved early to late modern features relating to the 19th century malthouse complex and quay. Several rows of postholes suggest there may have been an alternate entrance to the site or that the river banks were reinforced. Walls relating to former structures depicted on the historic maps were present, as were several rows of concrete footings related to a more recent structure, possibly a grain store or malting floor. The original bank of the canal was not located but a possible later and narrower channel was identified. A kiln or oven was located outside the trenches, along the south-eastern border of the site. It may predate the industrial remains located in the trenches. Due to modern truncation (decontamination) positive results for the second phase of evaluation were limited to one trench (Trench 8). Modern postholes and a ditch were encountered, and they had similar characteristics to those recorded in Trench 2B (Phase I).
