Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was carried out on the former bowling green on Magdalen Steet, Hadleigh, in advance of a proposed development. Three 20m trenches were excavated across the site but no archaeological features of any period were identified and no artefacts were recovered. The natural subsoil consisted of a pale orange/brown sandy silt with occasion flints. The natural topography rises to the east and to create a level green material has either been deliberately dumped, or has possible accrued through cross slope ploughing, resulting in the depth of the subsoil varying from 0.45m close to the north-east edge of the site to just over 1m towards the south-west boundary. The overburden consisted of a clayey topsoil containing only very occasional fragments of red brick/tile. |
