Abstract:		 In May 2013 Archaeological Solutions Limited (AS) carried out a historic building recording and monitoring on a 19th century kiln at Reads Brickworks, Aldeburgh, Suffolk (NGR TM 449 569). The work was required to comply with a planning condition attached to planning approval for a proposed residential development, based on advice from Suffolk County Council AS-CT prior to the structures demolition. In November 2012 the entire site was the subject of a heritage asset statement which identified several buildings relating to the production of brick including the main factory, four updraught kilns, a small office and various storage buildings. Two buildings remain from the 19th century including a disused 'Suffolk'-type kiln and the small office building. All other buildings appear to be of 20th century date though the storage building may incorporate fragments of older structures. A more detailed study of the 19th kiln revealed a remarkably well preserved example of a 'Suffolk'-type kiln complete with thick robust walls enclosing a lattice brickwork floor. Beneath three arched fire tunnels extend the width of the kiln given access from arched apertures piercing the wall on the south. External retaining walls extend to the south once forming a crude roofed shelter enclosing the stoking side of the kiln. Other fixtures and fittings including external doors hung on chains and fire rakes also survive.
