Abstract: |
A desk based assessment of Scotland Street Bridge, Stoke by Nayland, prior to its proposed renovation, has highlighted the importance of the structure as an example of a mid 19th century cast iron bridge in Suffolk and its position within the Stoke by Nayland Conservation Area. Documentary research has been unable to find any other examples manufactured by the fabricator E R and F Turner of Ipswich. The DBA has also established the existence of references to a bridge on the site dating to at least the 14th century, implying that the site has high potential for archaeological deposits relating to earlier medieval or post-medieval bridges or crossings. Recommendations have been made for recording the bridge prior to and during its dismantling, for the reinstatement of as much of the original fabric as possible to the renovated structure, and for archaeological monitoring of groundworks. |
