Abstract: |
Re-ordering works included the insertion of a new tea-point and toilet cubicle in to the base of the tower with external excavations including the insertion of a Trench Arch Drain. Archaeological monitoring of the excavation works was undertaken by Suffolk County Council''s Archaeological Service Field Projects Team. The excavation within the tower revealed a large fragment from a stone grave slab or paving slab set vertically in the ground in line with the north door splay of the tower''s west doorway. To the north of the slab, against the tower north wall, the fill was unconsolidated and included fragments of coal. While the function of this feature was not positively ascertained it was thought to be relatively recent in date and in someway associated with the Victorian heating system. The drainage trenches external to the tower were not deep enough to disturb intact burials and further structural remains were not uncovered. |
