Description

Monitoring was carried out during the excavation of the first four proposed fish ponds at Suffolk Water Park. Approx 0.8m of heavy clay soil overlay c.0.2m of brown humic material, over 0.4m of homogenous dark grey clay/silt, with some inclusions of vegetation, which in turn overlay the naturally occuring sand subsoil. The water table was encountered approx 0.3m above the level of the sandy subsoil. Only a modern pit was seen. No other archaeological features or finds were seen (S1).
