Abstract:
In June 2017, Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) carried out a programme of archaeological monitoring and recording associated with the construction of a new soakaway pit and related works at 9-10 The Churchyard, Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk IP33 3RT. The monitoring was required to comply with a condition of Scheduled Monument Consent for the groundworks (Historic England Case Ref. S001160858, SM 35556, HA 1021450), based on advice from Historic England. The site lies within the historic extent of the precinct of St Edmundsbury Abbey, a Scheduled Ancient Monument which also includes the monks' cemetery, outer precinct and vineyard walls. It was proposed to construct a new soakaway for drainage (c.2m x 2m), and the soakaway was excavated without archaeological advice or supervision. The excavation remained open. Historic England advised that the construction needed Scheduled Monument Consent and further advised that the open excavation required sampling and recording (along with the screening of any excavated spoil to be removed from site). Evident in the section of the soakaway, Layers L1005, L1006 and L1008, appeared to fill a cut, potentially a pit or ditch. Sieving of the soil derived from the mechanical excavation of the soakaway recovered five prehistoric struck flint of Neolitthic to Bronze Age date, and 37 sherds of medieval pottery (Appendix 2 Specialist reports), in addition to numerous late post-medieval and modern finds. The majority of the medieval pottery is late 12th - 14th century, and a few sherds of 11th - 13th and 15th - 16th century were also found.
