Site Event/Activity record ESF23930 - Evaluation - Wells Hall CP School, Great Cornard

An archaeological evaluation was carried out prior to a program of improvement to the school’s playing field. Two trenches were excavated through the middle of the two proposed areas of development. The trench through the existing playground to the east required the breaking and removal of 0.12m of tarmac and approximately 0.25m of concrete prior to the excavation of the subsoil. The trenches measured at 10m and 35.5m in length and both were 1.8m wide. The natural geology was reached at a depth ranging between 0.95m and 1.2m. No finds or features of archaeological interest were identified (S1).
