Abstract: |
NPS Archaeology was commissioned by Wellington Construction Ltd to carry out archaeological evaluation by trial trenching ahead of planned construction of residential housing at the location of the former Tyndale Press, Wollaston Road, Lowestoft, Suffolk (TM 54591, 93263). The proposed development site encompasses an area of 0.14 hectares. The archaeological works took place on 18 and 19 January 2016. Two trenches measuring 13.00m x 1.80m and one measuring 8.50m x 1.80m were excavated within the proposed development area. Two of the trenches revealed archaeological evidence in the form of undated ditches. The trenching also revealed that a deep deposit of possible colluvium was present across the site, potentially sealing the ditches. Each of the trenches demonstrated that a series of modern make-up deposits up to 0.70m deep were present. Trench 2 (in the centre of the site) demonstrated a possible earlier ground surface below modern make-up deposits. |
