Description
The site was open space within and to the rear of the Greyfriars’ development of commercial and residential units erected in c.1968. It was known to lie within the precinct of the medieval friary of the Greyfriars and adjacent to the known course of the River Gipping, which ran south to join the river Orwell at Stoke Bridge and was piped under Cecilia Street to the south in the late 19th century. The excavation was a pro-active evaluation prior to landscaping in 1974.
