Description

Archaeological monitoring of groundwork associated with the construction of an extension to St. Helen's Primary School, Woodbridge Road, Ipswich. It revealed c.1m of made ground over a possible buried topsoil which in turn overlay a natural subsoil of yellow silty clay. The possible buried topsoil contained numerous fragments of brick and tile and the natural subsoil appeared to be truncated suggesting the area has been previously disturbed, presumably during the original construction of the school.
