Site Event/Activity record ESF20961 - Monitoring - Moat House, Woodbridge Road, Debach

Archaeological monitoring of groundwork associated with the replacement of a rear extension to Moat House, Woodbridge Road, Debach, was undertaken during November 2010. The excavation of a series of foundation trenches was monitored which revealed a large area of fill in one trench. This lay on the line of a linear pond or moat and would suggest that it originally continued for at least a further 3m from its existing north-west terminus. No other archaeological features or deposits were revealed but there was evidence that the surface of the natural subsoil, which consisted of blue-grey clay, had been previously truncated.
