Abstract: |
Four evaluation trenches with a combined length of c. 75m were excavated at 1 Abbot Road, Bury St Edmunds. The evaluation was carried out on the 14th May 2014 and was conducted as a condition of planning application SE/12/1471/FUL. The work followed a written scheme of investigation written by SCCAS/FT in response to an archaeological Brief issued by Dr. Abby Antrobus (SCCAS/CT). The evaluation failed to identify any finds or features. The profile of the trenches consisted either of topsoil over a red/brown silty sand with patches of intruding chalk, or topsoil directly onto chalk. Linear marks in the surface of the chalk were identified as frost wedges caused by freeze-thaw action during periglacial conditions. |
