Description

A series of monitoring visits were made to groundworks in order to determine the archaeological significance of the site. There were problems with the contractors keeping foundation trenches open to view for the monitoring which caused difficulties at the site. The footing trenches were excavated to a maximum depth of c.2.5m. Evidence that the existing buildings on the site were constructed post c.1600 with some evidence of activity prior to these. It is possible that Chapel Street may have run of a former defensive line to the town of Woodbridge (S1).
