Abstract: |
From the 5th - 8th December 2017, Britannia Archaeology Ltd (BA) undertook an archaeological evaluation on behalf of Mr Tom Bryce of KLH Architects in advance of the erection of 8 dwellings, 1 office, a car park, and ancillary works at 26 Fore Street, Framlingham, Suffolk (Planning ref. DC/16/5386/FUL, NGR TM 287 633) (Fig. 1). The requirement for the evaluation consisted of linear trial trenching to sample the foot print of the proposed development. A design brief issued by Suffolk County Council Archaeology Service Conservation Team (SCCAS/CT) (Abraham, R. dated 17th August 2017) required a programme of linear trial trenching to sample 5% of the area under threat from development. Six 10.00m x 2.00m trenches targeting the proposed development footprint were considered suitable to achieve the sample. The archaeological evaluation encountered no archaeological features within the trenches. 2 phases of activity were represented by the layers across the site. The first phase is represented by a post-medieval agricultural sub soil 1001 which relates to the site's previous use as an agricultural plot during the medieval period visible on the 1st edition OS map 1883 (Suffolk XLIX.13). The second phase relates to the demolition of the modern structures which were previously on the site. This is represented by demolition layer 1003 which was present across most of the site and consisted of broken bricks and other CBM, pieces of concrete, and modern rubbish. Where this layer was present the top soil was no longer present except in trench 6 where a fragment of top soil survived. Levelling layer 1004 also relates to this phase and was present in trench 5 beneath a previous concrete pad (the demolished remnants form part of demolition layer 1003). |
