Description
An archaeological trial-trenching evaluation on land east of Hillingdon House, Purdis Farm Lane, Ipswich, Suffolk. The four evaluation trenches (T1-4) were 1.8m wide. T1-3 were 10m long (T1-2 in the footprint of the proposed new dwelling and garage, T3 in the swimming pool), and T4 was 15m long (tennis court). The trenches were cut through topsoil L1 (250mm thick), and an accumulation of silty sand, L2 (200mm thick). L2 sealed natural geology (sand with occasional gravel patches: L3). Plant root disturbance was apparent in all trenches.
