Site Event/Activity record ESF21664 - Monitoring - 32 Church St, Lavenham

Archaeological monitoring was carried out in advance of the construction of a two storey extension. The only features identified were an outdoor privy and shed that abutted the current dwelling on its south-west corner lay below a Victorian garden soil that contained modern pottery sherds and ceramic building material. Victorian service pipes that were still in everyday use were also recorded. There is good correlation between the privy and shed with the structure present on the cartographic sources verifying that it is broadly contemporary with the current dwelling (S1).
