Site Event/Activity record ESF20070 - The Granary, Needham Market

Archaeological monitoring following a building survey of the Granary at Hill House, Needham Market has identified earlier floor surfaces within the building. One of these is constructed of flint and some brick and probably represents the original stable floor. The second, earlier floor is constructed of compacted chalk and cut by the existing wall footings, indicating that this may be a floor relating to the late 16th century structure identified in the Building Survey.
