Abstract:
In August-September 2007, Archaeological Solutions conducted an archaeological evaluation of land at Hayhills Allotments, Woodbridge Road, Ipswich, Suffolk (NGR TM 1731 4516) in advance of residential development (Planning Ref. IP/07/00123/FUL). The Ipswich area has a rich archaeological record, with evidence of activity from the Palaeolithic onwards. By the 8th century, the town was an important centre for pottery production and a major port trading with continental northern Europe. The town centre is a designated Area of Archaeological Importance. The site itself is located away from the town centre; cartographic evidence shows the site remained fields until the late 19th century when it was turned into allotments. Around 70 Roman burials have been found approximately 300m north-west of the site and scatters of Anglo-Saxon and medieval pottery are also known nearby, perhaps suggesting some settlement at this time. The evaluation revealed a moderate number of archaeological features, principally modern rubbish pits and water pipe trenches associated with the use of the site as allotments since the late 19th century. A single residual sherd of Thetford-type ware may indicate some late Saxon/ early medieval activity in the area.
