Abstract: |
Long Melford, land at No 25 Southgate Street (LMD 224, TL 8612 4458) evaluation trenching for a single house development on the western side of the street revealed a substantial depth of top and subsoil over a clean and very silty iron stained deposit reminiscent of alluvial material. In this context it is probably significant that large drains or ditches run from close by towards the River Stour 200m to the west and it is apparent that the area of this site was formerly very low lying and likely to flood. The only pre-modern find from the site was a single sherd of Roman greyware pottery from the upper subsoil. |
