Abstract: |
Archaeological evaluation (three trial-trenches) carried out as specified in the project brief and WSI. An archaeological evaluation (three trial-trenches) was carried out at the former Chambers Bus Depot, Church Square, Bures St Mary, Suffolk in advance of the construction of a new convenience store and a residential development. The site is located within the historic core of Bures St Mary, which traces its origins back to the medieval period, and near to a crossing point over the River Stour which has been in use since at least the 16th century. Excavations at the site revealed two pits and three ditches dating to the medieval or post-medieval periods, and a further pit of post-medieval date, indicating occupation here during these periods, as well as a 19th-century pit. |
