Description

This report combines the results from an archaeological evaluation and sample excavation at 15-17 Eastgate Street. The development comprises four town houses and two flats in an area of 870 square metres that lie at c. 31m OD. The construction involved the removal of temporary buildings and a substantial concrete slab and the piling of the site. The monitoring of excavations for a housing development was carried out on this site which lies alongside the River Lark outside of the East gate of the town. A short trench was also excavated in lieu of monitoring (S1).
