Description

Martlesham, land to the rear of Bealingsbrook, Bealings Road (MRM 160, TM 2511 47199) evaluation trenching for a single dwelling development did not reveal any archaeological features and the only finds noted in the upcast spoil were occasional small fragments of brick or tile and glass of recent date from the topsoil. The subsoil below was very clean and, somewhat surprisingly for the area, the natural glaciofluvial deposit proved to be a moderately sandy clay with ground water ingress occurring at the interface with the subsoil suggesting this area was unattractive in the past for anything more than agricultural use.
