Abstract: |
Conditional planning consent for the erection of housing and shops on the former Ward''s Garage site at 85 High Street, Aldeburgh required a programme of archaeological works involving the monitoring of groundworks associated with the development. A number of site visits were made during the extensive grubbing out operations undertaken to remove the below ground structures (tanks, contaminated soils, inspection pits etc.) associated with the former garage on the site. The disturbance caused by the tanks extended down to a depth of c.2.5 metres below the existing ground level. Given that naturally occurring sand/gravel subsoil was seen in the sides of the excavation at a depth of 1.3 metres it must be assumed that any archaeological deposits that had been on the site had been truncated during the insertion of the tanks. |
