Abstract: |
An archaeological monitoring (watching brief) was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology during groundworks associated with an extension to a single dwelling at 22 Roman Way, Felixstowe. Over half of the observed footing trenches were disturbed by modern drains or landscaping/truncation probably associated with the construction of the Roman Way estate in the 1960s. A stretch of footing trench of c.8m length was observed at the rear of the property revealed a thick deposit (0.65m) of loess-type material (a wind-blown sediment of periglacial or later origin). Despite the site being close to possible burials and other Roman evidence, no features or deposits of archaeological significance were observed during groundworks, and no artefactual material pre-dating the modern period was recovered. |
