Abstract: |
In December 2019 Archaeological Solutions (AS) carried out an archaeological evaluation at The Hall, Hall Road, Lavenham, Suffolk CO10 9QX (NGR TL 912 491). The evaluation was undertaken in accordance with a planning condition attached to planning approval for the erection of a swimming pool building (Babergh Suffolk Approval Ref DC/19/04849). The earliest finds were a residual medieval coarseware jar rim in fairly good condition which is of mid 12th-14th centuries date from Made Ground L1001; and L1006 contained a medieval (12th - 14th century) body sherd of Hedingham Coarseware. Layer L1006 also contained two residual fragments from a single brick that was manufactured in the 15th-16th centuries. The earliest deposits in Trench 1 were gravels (L1006) which contained a residual medieval (mid 12th - mid 14th century) pottery sherd (1; 3g) and 18th - 19th C pottery (1; 28g). L1006 overlay the natural deposits, L1007. Ditch F1004 cut Made Ground L1001 which contained 17th - 19th century pottery, and the ditch contained late 18th - 19th C pottery. Clay Pads F1009 A - C also cut Made Ground L1001 and appeared to be associated with L1008, a compact sand layer. The pads relate to a former 20th century structure. The gravels and made ground deposits were likely derived from the terracing and landscaping of the site. |
