Description
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken in advance of the construction of 62 dwellings at land at Ellough Road, Beccles in order to characterise the nature of any surviving archaeological deposits. Only a small sample of the site was available for inspection. Four trenches were excavated over the site, but all were dug through layers of modern and extensive contamination and disturbance. No archaeological evidence was revealed, and it is likely much of the site was disturbed by this contamination. Subsequent monitoring concluded the contamination was widespread, and no archaeology was revealed.
