Full Description

2015: Archaeological monitoring revealed four pit features. One of these pits contained a quantity of medieval pottery which was disturbed by later post medieval refuse pits. The finds recovered from these later pits suggested a 19th century date. A large assemblage of clay pipe was recovered, some of which relate to pipe makers in Bury St Edmunds on High Baxter Street (S1).
