Site Event/Activity record ESF20603 - Evaluation - Dennington CEVCP School, Laxfield Road, Dennington

Evaluation revealed a number of features of archaeological interest were recorded during the work. A single trench was excavated within the footprint of the proposed building.

Finds from the prehistoric and medieval periods were collected during the evaluation.
