Full Description

Archaeological trial trench evaluation was conducted ahead of proposals to construct new holiday lodges behind Station Garage, Main Road, Darsham, Suffolk. Four trenches were opened of which two contained features of archaeological interest. Trench 1 (the northernmost trench) contained a possible post-hole believed to be of post-medieval to modern date whilst Trench 3 (the southernmost trench) contained a possible small pit which appeared to be an area of softer ground in-filled with post medieval rubble. All four of the trenches contained land drains (S1).

Included in the Proceedings of the Suffolk Institute of Archaeology and History annual round up of individual finds and discoveries for 2013 (S2)
