Abstract: |
An archaeological trial trench evaluation, excavation and watching brief have been undertaken at the proposed site of the Ipswich Academy, Gainsborough Sports and Community Centre, Braziers Wood Road, Ipswich, Suffolk. The work was commissioned by CgMs Consulting, with the evaluation undertaken between the 17th and 30th July 2012, the excavation between 6th August and the 7th September 2012, and the watching brief between the 10th and 14th September 2012. Taken together, this fieldwork recorded two phases of Bronze Age field systems with a barrow ring-ditch and one or more associated houses, and a later field system dating to the 1st century AD. The remains of two steel-reinforced concrete structures located towards the southeast of the site formed part of the Second World War defences that were added to the airfield that formerly occupied the current development area. |
